Yeshu Nilaya, Pallya, Hassan

This Friary is built about five years ago. About two acres of Land is donated by one Catholic here with the intention of starting some social work. The province is deciding to start something soon. The friary is very close to the National highway. There are about four Catholic families who are faithful to the Church. Every day one member of the family comes for the Mass. Br. Baptist is alone and loves to be alone. He has very good contacts with the locals. He goes around for preaching and visiting the people. He also works on the farm. He has cultivated vegetables and grains too. There are wild elephants who come in the night and destroy everything

Few Catholics who come for the Mass.....Brothers Joachim and Victor paid us a visit. they were on their way to Mangalore.....

Small friary ...it has four rooms....simple but very conducive for our capuchin life......

The old couple has donated the Land...they are faithful Catholics.....they love priests....much more the Capuchins....
