In Kerala, many parents from all over the state, without any distinction of caste or creed, flock to Bharananganam to have their children write the first letters at the feet of St. Alphonsa.
Our children, who are getting ready to join school this year had the unique opportunity to begin writing (വിദ്യാരംഭം / ആദ്യാക്ഷരം കുറിക്കല്) at the feet of St. Alphonsa, on Pentecost day. It was done after Holy Qurbana, chidren writing "Jesus" in rice (Rice is the reliable staple food of people from time immemorial. It stands for the primordial generosity of God to humans. It symbolizes God's providence and generous blessings.)
Let us pray that the Holy Spirit, who enabled the Apostles with all knowledge, shower His blessings and gifts upon our children and fill their minds with wisdom and prudence.
