A membership directory with faces and names helps everyone
in the Province to know each other well. Directories also help
chronicle history of the province and record the ministries and
activities taking place within its walls and through its outreach
to the people of God. Hence the noble task of having the
directory of our province dedicated to Holy Trinity is really
praiseworthy.
Right at the outset let me congratulate and thank the brothers

who took lot of initiatives and worked hard to prepare our
Province Directory this time with the photos of all friars.
“Better late than never” as the saying goes, this time the work
of directory got delayed due to difficulty in collecting photos
and details of all the friars serving in different jurisdictions.
The directory is quite useful not only does it serve to record

historical information and capture that moment in time, but
also the directory can be used to reach out to the communities
and friars easily. Directories also are important in helping
members of a province feel connected to one another. To
remain connected with one another as Brothers we need to
know their domicile to remain in touch with them, date of birth
to wish and pray for them and be familiar with them through
their photos. In short,directory can solidify members to the
province. Members feel a sense of pride, a sense of belonging,
a sense of community when they are a part of the directory and
thus members of the province and the Capuchin Order.
Let us be grateful to the Lord as we are united in brotherhood
through the use of this beautifully made directory of our
province.

Brief History of Capuchins

in India
1. Initial presence and attempts at the Implantation of the
Order
The arrival of the Capuchins in India dates back to the year
1632 when a band of foreign Capuchin Missionaries landed
in Pondichery. Their intention was to extend their missionary
thrust to Tibet and Nepal; however it turned out that they
continued their missionary ventures in the Vicariate of Agra
and Patna. After slogging as missionaries for about two and
half centuries, the idea of implanting the Order in India was
considered as a possibility. Hence in 1880 a novitiate house was
opened in Mussoorie. Just ten years later however this novitiate
was closed down for want of vocations. A second attempt at
beginning the Order in India was made on 26th February 1922,
at the instance of the then General Minister of the Order, Br.
Joseph Anthony of Persiceto. He inaugurated the novitiate
personally at Sardhana, which could be said as the cradle of the
Capuchin Order in India for many years to come. Two Indian
novices were vested on this occasion in the novitiate named
after St. Fidelis of Sigmaringen.
The Superiors Regular of Agra, Ajmer, Allahabad and Lahore were
jointly responsible for the success of this venture. Vocations to
the Order came from many dioceses of India but more from the
South than the North. To overcome many of the initial troubles
in the area of formation, the novitiate was later placed under
the care of the Superior Regular of Ajmer and to continue
the post-novitiate formation, a study house was started at St.
Francis Monastery, Mussoorie. The early Capuchins were then
sent to Europe to pursue their further studies with the French
16
Directory 2016-19
friars at Breust, Tours and Nantes. The first batch of 12 clerics

had left India on 22nd June 1927, Br. Marie Egide Uhlennuth of
Ajmer leading them.
2. Movement towards South and Rapid growth
The absence of a strong, vibrant and populous Christian
community in North India, even as the extreme weather
conditions of the place called for a transfer of the novitiate
from North to a more favourable location in the South. The
Province of Paris was called upon to undertake this venture. The
Capuchins were offered a little hill at Farangipet, called Monte
Mariano, in the diocese of Mangalore and hence the decision to
shift the novitiate was carried out in May 1930. Monte Mariano
therefore can well be called the second cradle of the Capuchins
in India. From then on the growth of the Capuchins was rapid
and already in 1932 a study house was set up in Quilon and most
of the students who had not yet finished their studies abroad
were brought back to continue their studies there.
Naming of Br. Guido Le Floch as the General Commissary in
1933 marked the next phase of the growth of the Order in India.
The influx of candidates was unabated and the Order grew from
strength to strength. From 1948 to 1954, Br. Richard Brunner
from Calvary Province of USA was put in charge of the Indian
Capuchin Mission. He was made Commissary Provincial in 1951.
But already by 1954 the hands at the helms were changed and
Br. Cyril Andrade became the first Indian to head the unit as
Commissary Provincial. In 1956 the Agra Archdiocese was
entrusted to the Order and Br. Dominic Athaide was consecrated
as the first Indian Capuchin Bishop of Agra. In 1957, Br. Cassian
Timmins, a Canadian Missionary from Gorakhpur was appointed
to guide the destiny of the Commissariat and he guided it during
the next 6 years. The number of Capuchins by now had grown
from 41 in 1933 to almost two hundred in 1960.

Directory 2016-19
3. Formation of an Autonomous Indian Province

Br. Clement of Milwaukee, the General Minister, who had
seen the growth of the Capuchin jurisdiction in India already
at the time of his first visit, during his second term as General
Minister paid a second visit in 1962, expressly for the purpose
of constituting the Indian unit into a full-pledged Capuchin
Province. Br. John Berchmans Puthuparambil was appointed as
its first Provincial Minister and he was re-elected as Provincial
Minister at the first elective Provincial Chapter, held in 1966.
Next in 1969.
Br. Jacob Acharuparambil was elected as the Provincial Minister.
He was also the last of provincial Ministers of the united Indian
Province as the jurisdiction had grown too big and stood
in great need of a division, if only for the sake of sheer good
administration.
4. Division of the Indian Province
Ever since the novitiate was shifted to Monte Mariano, St.
Fidelis Friary, Farangipet, the Province had seen nothing but
steady and rapid growth, so much so, by the year 1967, just
forty years after migrating to the South, it could count about
500 friars distributed among 40 houses in the five states of
Karnataka, Goa, Maharashtra, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. Besides
they were working also in many other States of northern India as
missionaries and even in some foreign countries like Indonesia,
Philippines, and Tanzania as Formators. Some had reached as
far as Malaysia with a view of implanting the Order. In these
circumstances, the need of creating smaller jurisdictions for the
sake of greater efficiency and a better implantation of the Order
in the various regions in India became not only apparent but
also urgent. The first discussion to this effect took place during
the Provincial Chapter of 1969. The General Minister and his
Definitory, having taken note of the situation sent Br. Aloysius
18
Directory 2016-19
Ward to conduct an on the spot and a thorough study of the

state of affairs prevailing in the Province during the visitation
from November 1971 to February 1972. It was then followed
up by the then General Minister, Br. Paschal Rywalski, himself.
As a result at the end of March 1972, the General Minister
and his Definitory took the important but necessary decision
to dismember the Province into four units, namely – Province
of St. Joseph, Kerala, Province of Holy Trinity, Karnataka-Goa-
Maharashtra (KGM), Province of Amala Annai, Tamil Nadu and
the Vice Province of St. Francis, Kerala.
The decree to this effect, signed on 9th May 1972, was
promulgated at St. Joseph’s Friary, Kotagiri, on the 17th of
May by Br. Aloysius Ward, along with the names of the new
Provincial Superiors and their Definitory.
5. Holy Trinity Province, Karnataka-Goa-Maharashtra
The new Province of KGM was carved out of the former Indian
Province of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The three states
of Karnataka, Goa and Maharashtra were indicated as its
geographical territory. Br. Remigius Sequeira was appointed
as the first Provincial Minister of the new province with Br.
Liguory Noronha as Provincial Vicar and the First Definitor. Brs.
Pacificus Menezes, Irenaeus D’Souza and Vincent Lobo were
the second, third and fourth definitors respectively. The General
Minister and his definitory also entrusted the Agra - Lucknow
- Ranchi mission to the new province as a good number of its
friars were working in the mission. On 17th May 1972, the
new provincial Minister and his definitory assumed charge and
on that day the Province of Karnataka-Goa and Maharashtra
officially came into existence. It had strength of 100 friars. The
first Chapter of the Province held at Monte de Guirim in 1973
decided to dedicate the Province to the Most Holy Trinity.
The second ordinary Chapter of the province, held in March
1975, re-elected Br. Remigius Sequeira as Provincial Minister.
19
Directory 2016-19
He had however a new team of definitors, namely Br. Vincent

Lobo, first Definitor and Provincial Vicar, and Brs. Irenaeus
D’Souza, Alphonse Malcolm Sequeira and Rudolf D’Souza. On
the whole, this initial period was directly concerned with the
recognition of the new identity and establishment of a stable
provincial fraternity.
In March 1978, at the third ordinary Chapter, Br. Vincent Lobo
became the Provincial Minister with a fresh team of Definitors,
namely Brs. Liguory Noronha, Irenaeus D’Souza, Evarist Ferreira
and Br. Frederick Rodrigues. The fourth ordinary Chapter too
held in April 1981, re-elected him once again as Provincial
Minister. The Definitors elected were: Brs. Cornelius Monteiro,
Evarist Ferreira, Dinesh Mendonca and Crispin Lobo. During
second term the major study houses of philosophy and theology
were established at Bangalore and thus the entire formation
programme began to function within the province itself.
Br. Liguory Noronha was elected as the Provincial Minister in the
fifth ordinary Chapter, held in May 1984. Br. Terence D’Souza
was elected as the First Definitor and the vicar provincial, Brs.
Theodore Pereira, Remigius Sequeira, Garcia Coutinha as the
second and the third and the fourth Definitor respectively. The
Provincial Minister, Br. Liguory Noronha was re-elected in the
sixth ordinary Chapter held in April 1987 but was provided with
entirely a new team of definitors. Br. Patrick Crasta was the first
Definitor and the Provincial Vicar. The other definitors were
Brs. Dinesh John Mendonca, Oscar Colaco and Rudolf D’Souza.
Responding positively to the call given by the General Minister
and his definitory, the province accepted for the first time a
mission abroad and four brothers entered Uganda in October
1988. The new administration had also to make some immediate
provision to separate the two stages of philosophical and
theological formation as the number of brothers in formation
at Bangalore had substantially increased. Hence the study of
theology was shifted to the newly acquired place at Mysore.
20
Directory 2016-19
On 28th March 1990 during the seventh ordinary Chapter

Br. Patrick Crasta was elected as Provincial Minister. Brs. Joel
Pinto, Oscar Colaco, Baptist Braggs and Andrew Anil Sequeira
were elected as the first, the second, the third and the fourth
Definitor respectively. Heeding the urgent request, the province
accepted to send a few brothers to assist the Capuchin mission
of Papua New Guinea.
The eighth ordinary Chapter elected on the 14th April 1993 Br.
Andrew Anil Sequeira as the Provincial Minister. Br. Remigius
Sequeira was the first Definitor and the Provincial Vicar with
Brs. Simon Rico Fernandes, Canute D’Costa and Evarist Ferreira
as Definitors. The General Chapter of the Order held in June -
July 1994 at the international college, Rome, however retained
Br. Andrew Anil Sequeira back in Rome as the General Definitor
and hence Br. Remigius Sequeira who was the provincial vicar
succeeded him by nomination, and Br. Rudolf D’Souza was
co-opted as the fourth Definitor. While the Ugandan mission
saw a further consolidation, the province realized a long
cherished dream of having an independent house for provincial
administration at Rajajinagar, Bangalore.
The ninth ordinary chapter was held from May the 1st, 1996
at which Br. Vincent G. Furtado was chosen as the Provincial
Minister. Br. Patrick Crasta was elected as the first Definitor
and the Provincial Vicar and Brs. Felix Ferrao, Francis Gonsalves
and Andrew Rebello as the second, the third and the fourth
Definitor respectively. The Chapter decided to request the
General Definitory to erect independent Vice Provinces of Goa
and Maharashtra. During the Triennium the province took up
the mission of North-East India, comprising the four states of
Nagaland, Manipur, Tripura and Mizoram and also began a
collaborative venture with the Capuchin province of New York
to develop the custody of Japan.
21
Directory 2016-19
6. Holy Trinity Province of Karnataka

On 8th December 1998 the General Definitory by its Decree
Prot. No. 00999/98 constituted and declared established the
Most Holy Trinity Province of Karnataka. By the same Decree
the General Definitory appointed Br. Vincent Gabriel Furtado
as the new Provincial Minister, Br. John Baptist Sequeira as the
first Definitor and Provincial Vicar, Br. Patrick Crasta, Br. Edwin
Colaco and Br. Rudolf D’Souza as the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Definitors
respectively. The inauguration of the new province took place
at St. Fidelis Friary, Farangipet. The first Provincial Chapter of
the new Province was held at Shanthi Sadhana, FISI, Bangalore
from May 24 – 29, 1999. At this Chapter provincial Statutes
were formulated and approved ad experimentum. During this
triennium procedures were completed to enter into Sri Lanka
Mission in order to form the students of Pakistan and also to
implant the Order in the island.
The year 2001 saw the celebration of the second ordinary
Chapter of the province. It voted Br. Andrew Anil Sequeira as
the provincial Minister. To assist him were elected Brs. Desmond
Rebello, the provincial vicar, Edwin Colaco, John Baptist Sequeira
and Paul Sequeira as the Definitors. The very first act of the
new team was to launch the Capuchin presence in Sri Lanka
with the express intention of the implantation of the Order and
that of opening a novitiate house to form brothers hailing from
Pakistan.
The year 2004 saw the celebration of the third ordinary Chapter
of the province and elected Br. Antony Jossy Fernandes as the
Provincial Minister. To assist him were elected Brs. Vincent
Gabriel Furtado, the provincial vicar, Henry Alva, Desmond
Rebello and Joachim D’Souza as the Definitors. During this
triennium the Province took up ministerial collaboration with
St. Mary’s Province, New York and a new mission station in
Manipur State.

HISTORY OF THE HOUSES OF THE PROVINCE

1. Saccidananda, Rajajinagar, Archdiocese of Bangalore
Ever since the Holy Trinity Province of Karnataka-Goa-
Maharashtra was culled out from the erstwhile single province
of India, the friars have been looking forward to the realization
of a Provincial House. As the history has it, the Provincialate
was shifted from place to place. It was first housed at Monte de
Guirim and then at Deena Seva Ashram, Bangalore. To render
more effective and prompt service to brothers as well as to
have an easy access, it has now found a permanent residence
at Saccidananda, Rajajinagar, Bangalore. The Provincialate was
inaugurated on December 29, 1995.
2. St. Fidelis Friary, Farangipet, Diocese of Mangalore
A dilapidated chapel dedicated to St. Francis of Assisi and a
tottering old building, which once belonged to the Portuguese
Franciscans, was standing on the little hillock, called Monte
Mariano, at Farangipet. The buildings with the adjoining
compound were placed by the Bishop of Mangalore at the
disposal of the Capuchins for the purpose of the novitiate house
when they came to Farangipet in May 1930. The chapel was
repaired and on its side was constructed the novitiate block.
Until 1969, this was the only novitiate house of the Capuchins in
India. A seraphic school was also attached to it until 1949. The
novitiate for the non-clerical friars was shifted to Muvattupuzha
(Kerala) in 1963. The Junior Professorium was conducted at
Monte Mariano from 1966-70 for the non-clerical friars. After
the erection of the new Province, the novitiate was brought
back to Farangipet in 1973 and has continued to be there to
date. In June 1978, the Initiation Course located at St. Fidelis
Ashram, Lucknow, Mahanagar, on an experimental basis since
June 1973, was once again shifted to Monte Mariano.
24
Directory 2016-19
The gradual increase in the number of vocations in the Province

since 1987 and the need for providing accommodation for the
candidates of St. Fidelis Vice-Province erected in the North in
September 1981, made it necessary to take up the construction
of a new block in 1982.
Presently, though the formation of the novices is the main
ministry of the friars at Monte Mariano, they also render
pastoral service to the parishes around. To mark the Golden
Jubilee of the friary, St. Fidelis Commerce Institute with about
100 students was started in May 1982 in a rented building. The
proposal for a new building to accommodate the increasing
number of students of the commerce institute and the tailoring
section was approved in August 1982. The building completed
in 1987 now houses about 100 students.
3. St. Anne’s Friary, Jail Road, Diocese of Mangalore
The place, originally known as “Lawn View” and measuring 45
cents, belonged to Mr. George Lobo, a retired jailor. He gifted
the place and his house to the Capuchins in May 1936, in
memory of his deceased wife, Mrs. Annie Lobo. Hence the friary
is named after St. Anne. Earlier the house was used as a centre
for Franciscan gatherings. A hall was erected for this purpose
in 1937, which served also as a chapel and eventually became
the Portiuncula, dedicated to Our Lady of Angels. In 1941 the
house of Mr. George Lobo was declared a hospice attached to
St. Fidelis Friary, Farangipet. Some friars started staying here for
the purpose of doing social work and other pastoral ministry
in the town. A shrine of St. Anthony was constructed at the
corner of the triangle during the same year.
Since Mr. George Lobo was still living in one of the rooms of his
old house and the friars needed privacy, a temporary residence
was constructed behind the shrine of St. Anthony in 1943.
25
Directory 2016-19
In 1950, after the death of Mr. George Lobo, the temporary

residence was demolished and the old house of Mr. Lobo was
re-modeled and the chapel was enlarged. For the purpose of
promoting vocations to the Order, the Assisi House was started
in 1955 in a small rented building. The compound, measuring
about 2 acres, adjoining the friary and known as ‘Grasmere’,
which belonged to Mr. P.C. Lobo, the brother of Mr. George
Lobo, was acquired in 1960 and the Assisi House was shifted to
its present premises.
The old house constructed by Mr. George Lobo at Lawn View
and which had housed the friars for more than 25 years, having
become inconvenient for habitation, was demolished in 1977
and on the same site the new friary was constructed and
completed in 1979. The students of PUC were accommodated
in the Friary from 1979 to 1983.
In 1983 the PUC students were shifted to the Assisi House
which itself was rebuilt in the year 1967 to accommodate
the increasing number of boys studying in Assisi House. From
1987 Assisi House looked after only capuchin candidates who
did their PUC studies. In August 1999, Postulancy of KGM was
shifted to Assisi House. The fourth Provincial Chapter of 2007
decided to have first year of Initiation and also the Provincial
Infirmary in the Assisi House. A master plan was approved for
this purpose.
The friary has many initiatives to its credit. In early 1950’s, under
the leadership of Fr. Cyril Andrade the S.F.O. apostolate began
in Mangalore. Later, under the leadership of Fr. Vincent Lobo,
the S.F.O. ministry thrived in Mangalore diocese. In 1943 the
Konkani Natak Sabha started by Fr. George Albuquerque Pai S.J.
was transferred to the Capuchins of St. Anne’s Friary. Fr. Cyril
Andrade became its president. By 1951, under the leadership
of Fr. Philip Neri, a good Hall, named Don Bosco, was built and
26
Directory 2016-19
to-date the Capuchins direct the socio-cultural activities of the

K.N.S. Some years later, Fr. Vincent Lobo started the Konkani
family monthly magazine, “Sevak” which saw its first issue
in September 1959. He also started Assisi Press in 1970 as a
landmark in the media apostolate of the Province.
The friars are now engaged in varied forms of apostolate:
preaching, spiritual assistance to the S.F.O., promoting vocations,
apostolate of the press and the stage.
4. Holy Family Friary, Brahmavar, Diocese of Udupi
Brahmavar has a special prominence in the history of the
diocese of Mangalore because of the schism, which took place
in 1887. The priests in charge of the parish at Brahmavar had
worked zealously for the reunion of movement and to render
pastoral assistance to the diocesan clergy in the Northern part
of the diocese. The Bishop of Mangalore however entrusted
the pastoral care of the parish, along with the two substations
– Petre and Nilavar – to the Capuchins on 15 April 1956. They
completed the plastering and flooring of the Church, which
along the new belfry was blessed in April 1961.
The fraternity at Brahmavar was canonically erected on 28
February 1960. The friary building was completed and blessed
on 19th December 1966. A new church was erected at Petre
through the efforts of the friars and by 1968, Petre was separated
from Brahmavar as an independent parish, administered by
the diocesan clergy. The chapel at Nilavar was built in 1967.
While taking good care of the Brahmavar parish, the friars also
render sacramental ministry to the neighbouring parishes, give
spiritual assistance to the SFO, preach retreats and recollections
to various religious and lay groups and promote vocations to
the Order.

5. Darshan Institute of Theology, Kengeri, Archdiocese of

Bangalore
In 1965 the friars went in search of a place for a friary in
Bangalore. The present site at the Valagerehalli, Kengeri area
was bought in 1966. The construction of a friary was begun in
1971 and it was blessed and declared a canonically erected
house in 1974.
In 1976 an additional block was constructed with self-contained
rooms for the sick and aged friars. When the Orientation Course
had to be shifted here from Monte Mariano in June 1980, the
construction of an additional floor was taken up. In 1981 the
common study houses of the four jurisdictions were wound up
in favour of regionalization and inculturation. The Provincial
Chapter accordingly decided to conduct the entire programme
of formation of our candidates from Orientation to Theology
in our own province. Deena Seva Ashram thus became the
major study house for students of Philosophy and Theology and
Professorium Brothers from June 1981. The Orientation Course
was shifted from Bangalore to Navelim.
As the number of the students of Philosophy steadily increased
it was found necessary to shift the Theologate to Kripalaya,
Mysore, in the year 1985. Deena Seva Ashram became the
institute of philosophy and religion. Meanwhile the bishop
requested that it be made a quasi-parish so as to meet the
pastoral requirements of the people around especially those
who steadily came to settle down in the near-by satellite town.
The Capuchins took diligent care of this parish until a new
parish church was built in the Kengeri Satellite Town and the
Archbishop appointed a diocesan priest as the pastor in July
2002.
At Deena Seva Ashram a new auditorium was blessed on
August 31, 1997. A new Chapel, Library and Dining Hall was
28
Directory 2016-19
constructed to accommodate increasing number of students.

The provincial chapter of April 2007 took a historical decision
to shift the present philosophate at Deena Seva Ashram to
Kripalaya, Bogadi, Mysore and the theologate at Kripalaya to
Deena Seva Ashram Bangalore, keeping in mind the concept of
Campus Theology and also to promote the activities of Darshan
Research Institute. The mutual transfer of houses took place
on June 25, 2007. The theologate was re-christened as ‘Darshan
Institute of Theology”.
6. St. Joseph’s Friary, Lower Kasarkod, Diocese of Karwar
When North Kanara formed a part of the diocese of Belgaum,
the parish of St. Joseph at Lower Kasarkod was permanently
entrusted to the pastoral care of the Capuchins in 1975, on the
understanding that they would also look after the pastoral needs
of five other parishes at Samsi, Kodani, Molkod, Gundibala and
Binaga.
Later in 1976 North Kanara became the new diocese of Karwar
and the earlier agreement was slightly altered. The parishes
of Samsi and Binaga were ceded to the diocese in 1981 and
the friars continued to work just in four parishes of Gundibala,
Kodani, Molkod and Lower Kasarkod. The latter became the
centre for the entire area. In 1986, the parishes of Gundibala,
Kodani and Molkod were also ceded to the diocese, retaining
thus only St. Joseph’s Church, Lower Kasarkod for the friars. The
foundation for the new church at Lower Kasarkod was laid on
1 May 1977 and the new Church was completed on 30 April
1979. A new house for the friars was constructed in 1990.
7. Ravi Ashram, Banakal, Diocese of Chikmagalur
Early in 1962 two friars were working in Bhadravati in Chikmagalur
diocese. They however withdrew from there in 1964. Ever since
a proposal to start a new foundation in Chikmagalur diocese
29
Directory 2016-19
was under consideration. When the Bishop of the diocese

offered to the Capuchins 2 acres of vacant land at Bankal for
the purpose of erecting a church and a residence, the offer was
gladly accepted on a permanent basis on 7 July 1973 through
an agreement between the Bishop and the Provincial Minister.
The parish church dedicated to Infant Mary was completed and
blessed in 1975. The parish has two sub-stations, one at Javali
and other at Balur. A new chapel at Balur was constructed in
1990.
8. Dayal Bagh Ashram, Ujire, Diocese of Mangalore
Dayal Bagh, begun as a farm in 1969, has grown into an Ashram
today and is raised to the status of ‘Domus Formata’. At first it
was started on a plot of land measuring about 5 acres in view
of the social uplift of the poor villages around. Later on more
land was acquired and agricultural cum horticultural work was
undertaken. The idea was to make Dayal Bagh a model farm.
Accordingly, piggary, poultry and dairy were undertaken as
additional activities. Several developmental projects are under
way since the inception of the farm.
A government recognized agricultural school that began around
1980 is engaged in training young and enterprising farmers. A
new residence for the friars and a nice-little chapel for worship
were completed between 1979-85. The agricultural students
also have their own quarters to stay at Dayal Baugh during their
studies. At present the developmental activities in and around
Ujire are efficiently carried on through ‘Vimukti’ Ujire begun in
the year 1996. These activities also come under the umbrella
of Capuchin Krishik Seva – Kendra, a registered society. Since
1996 June Dayal Bagh Ashram is also the house of Orientation
and Aspirancy along with the NIOS programme. From 2008
Dayalbagh will be housing only Aspirancy students who will do
their PUC in the neighboring colleges.
30
Directory 2016-19
9. Kripalaya, Institute of Philosophy and Religion, Bogadi,

Diocese of Mysore
In 1983 the Province acquired a piece of agricultural plot in
Bogadi Village just outside the city limits of Mysore, close to
Manasa Gangotri University. A farm house was constructed and
it was named as Kripalaya and initially just two friars lived in
it. When it became obvious that the Theologate from Deena
Seva Ashram, Bangalore had to be shifted, in keeping with the
decision of the fifth Provincial Chapter of 1984, it was decided
to plan a new Theologate at Kripalaya, Mysore. In 1987, the first
phase of the new building was ready for occupation and in 1989
the construction of the second phase was over. The Seminary
chapel, beautifully built in Indian style was blessed in February
1992.
Besides the formation work, the friars are also engaged in
active apostolate in the diocese. The Hinkal mission near-by
was entrusted to the care of Kripalaya, which has been given
back to the diocese in 1998. Apart from the regular chaplaincy
to several convents, the friars also give recollections to different
communities and preach retreats to religious.
According to the mandate of the provincial chapter 2007, the
Theologate was transferred to Deena Seva Ashram, Kengeri on
June 25, 2007 and the Institute of Philosophy and Religion was
brought to Kripalaya on the same day.
10. St. Anthony’s Church, Hosanagar, Diocese of Shimoga
At the pressing appeal of Bishop Ignatius Pinto of Shimoga,
the small parish at Hosanagar, with about 350 Catholics, was
accepted on a temporary basis. The Provincial Chapter of March
1990 favoured the continued presence and ministry of the friars
in the parish in the diocese of Shimoga. Accordingly a wholly
new church and a friary were built so as to provide good service
to the people and a convenient residence to the friars.

11. Franciscan Institute of Spirituality in India, KENGERI,

Archdiocese of Bangalore
It all began in 1987. The inspiration of the Franciscan Institute of
Spirituality in India (FISI) was that of the General Minister and his
Definitory. Holy Trinity Province of Karnataka-Goa-Maharashtra
was to respond actively by taking a bold step of initiating and
implanting the FISI Project under the supervision of CCMSI. In
the realization of the same the province has the full backing of
the General Definitory. 9 acres of land belonging to Deena Seva
Ashram has been gifted by the Province for this purpose and
the implementation of the project has quickly picked up. Many
courses in Franciscan Spirituality and Charism had meanwhile
been organized all over India under the aegis of FISI. Many more
programme are being chalked out, thanks to the collaboration
of the friars from all the capuchin jurisdictions in India, including
the Friars Minor and some women Franciscans.
The institute was solemnly inaugurated by Most Rev. Fr. Flavio
Carraro, the General Minister and blessed by Most Rev. Dr.
Alphonsus Mathias, the then Archbishop of Bangalore, on
7th Dec. 1993. Since this institute has been entrusted to our
province for its ordinary administration, a team of friars reside
there since June 1993.
12. Clara Vihar, Potnal, Diocese of Bellary
The diocese of Bellary, represented by Bishop Joseph D’Silva,
formally invited the Capuchins of the Holy Trinity Province to
open a house anywhere in the diocese, through his letter dated
5 May 1993. After a spot study of various places, through his
letter dated 11 October 1993, Fr. Andrew Anil Sequeira, the then
Provincial Minister, communicated the decision of the Provincial
Definitory, expressing willingness to take up Potnal in the district
of Raichur. In the month of May 1994, the Provincial Definitory
assigned two friars Fr. Mark Saldanha and Fr. Jerald Lobo as the
32
Directory 2016-19
first capuchins to Potnal Mission. These arrived in Bellary on 5

June 1994 and proceeded to Potnal, to be accommodated in
the Jawalgera farm of the diocese.
The diocese then entrusted to the Capuchins of Holy Trinity
Province, the 10 stations of the Potnal Mission territory, viz.,
Mudengudi, Karabdinni, Jeenur Camp, Donmaldi, Jeenur,
Tadakal, Dotharabandi, Udbal, Markamdinni, and Belavatta,
which hitherto formed the parts of the Jawalgera parish, for the
spiritual and pastoral care of the people of God. The diocese also
placed at the disposal of the Capuchins the diocesan property
situated at Potnal village measuring 9 acres and 15 guntas.
The Provincial Chapter of May 1996 decided to house the Post-
Novitiate formation of the brothers at Potnal. A new structure
suitable for this stage of formation was put up and was blessed
on October 30, 1999. It was named ‘Clara Vihar’ and the Post-
Novitiate formation commenced in the house. The Friars pay
special attention to the developmental activities in the near by
villages of Potnal through ‘Vimukti’.
13. Prem Nivas, Gangondanahalli, Archdiocese of Bangalore
The Capuchins of Deena Seva Ashram had been rendering
pastoral services in the substation of Gangondanahalli since
1975. The Archdiocese of Bangalore, represented by the
Archbishop, Rt. Rev. Dr. Arokiasamy, formally requested the
Capuchins to take care of the pastoral needs of this area, as one
of the substations of Kengeri quasi-parish, by his letter dated 3
November 1982. A Kannada medium school, dedicated to St.
Anthony was opened soon thereafter in a small hut with cement
sheet roof. The area has seen a rapid development even as the
development of the parish and school.
A church and school building along with the residential quarters
were constructed by the Capuchins on the land donated by Mr.
33
Directory 2016-19
M. Joseph and were inaugurated and blessed by Rt. Rev. Dr.

Alphonsus Mathias, the then Archbishop of Bangalore, on 31
October 1993. Earlier it was erected into a full-fledged parish
and entrusted to the Capuchins ‘ad perpetuum’ through an
agreement dated 25 August 1993. The St. Antony English School
started by the Friars is making good progress.
14. Christalaya, Chikkodi, Diocese of Belgaum
The Holy Rosary Church, Tumarikop, in Belgaum diocese,
was entrusted to us for pastoral care, due to some insoluble
problems. It was however handed back to the diocese in July
1997 after resolving the problems to a very great extent. As
the bishop Bernard Moras desired that the Capuchins continue
their work in his diocese, another place, namely, Chikkodi was
accepted by us to continue our serviceable presence in the
diocese. At Chikkodi, our presence is purely missionary, as
there are no Catholics around. Since November 1997 we have
been residing in a rented house and while doing social work
through ‘Vimukti’. They also cooperate with the diocese in
various developmental projects. A new school has been just
begun in view of meeting the educational needs of the place. A
new house has been built for the residence of the Friars and to
house the offices of Vimukti.
15. Asha Kiran, Bhadravati, Diocese of Shimoga
Noticing the need of a rehabilitation centre for de-addiction of
alcoholics and substance abuse persons, a beginning was made
at Kengeri in the year 1994. As the land that housed ‘Asha Kiran’
was notified by the Bangalore development authority, the
healing ministry had to be shifted. It was decided to transfer the
same to Bhadravati where the Capuchins had a small stretch of
land. With the generous help of Swiss Capuchin province and
International Office of Solidarity a friary as well as the centre
34
Directory 2016-19
became a reality. It was inaugurated on November 14, 2001. It

is envisaged that the fraternity while carrying on the ministry
in the rehabilitation centre, shall also involve itself in pastoral
work in the entire diocese of Shimoga.
16. Anugraha Ashrama, Halbarga, Bidar, Diocese of Gulbarga
The diocese of Mangalore under the leadership of bishop
Aloysius D’ Souza invited the Capuchins in the year 2000 to
actively involve themselves in the mission of Bidar district
which the diocese itself had been looking after for almost
two decades. On accepting the invitation we were offered the
mission of Halbarga along the Bidar-Latur road in order to carry
out spiritual ministry in the district of Bidar. The process of
establishing our presence was initiated by the purchase of a
piece of land to establish our ‘mission house’. The ground floor
of the Friary was blessed on 30th May 2007. The Provincial
Definitory has decided to construct the first floor and establish
the formation stage of Postulancy in the Friary.
17. Assisi Vihar, Shirvad, Diocese of Karwar
There was a long awaited plan to open a second house in the
diocese of Karwar and efforts were on to find a suitable place
convenient for the friars to render the pastoral assistance to
the diocese and meet the spiritual needs of the religious of the
diocese. The provincial minister Br. Jossy Fernandes negotiated
with the Bishop of Karwar and established a second house in
the Diocese on 28th January 2006 and the General Minister Br.
John Corriveau by his decree dated 7th April 2006 erected the
house canonically.
18. Trinity Vihar, Shivally, Diocese of Udupi
The Capuchin Education Board suggested that the Province
should have a school along the coastal line. The Provincial
Minster, Br. Vincent Gabriel Furtado negotiated around five
35
Directory 2016-19
acres of land in Shivally village near Manipal in the District

of Udupi for this purpose. A central school was planned and
dedicated to the Most Holy Trinity A Friary with the name Trinity
Vihar is also planned. The initiative was from St. Anne’s Friary
and the land is registered under The Mangalore Capuchin Friars
Minor Society. The place is suitable for SFO spiritual assistance,
vocation promotion and pastoral ministry in Udupi District. The
primary school building was blessed by Most Rev. Aloysius Paul
D’Souza, the Bishop of Mangalore and inaugurated by Br. John
McHugh the Vicar Provincial of St. Mary’s Province New York on
11th April 2010.
19. Assisi Nilaya, Moodubelle, Diocese of Udupi
The Aspirancy or the PUC college studies were well planned in
Dayalbagh Ashram, Ujire as the Brothers could attend Anugraha
college in Ujire. But the diocese terminated the PU course
suddenly and hence we had to find an alternative place for
Aspirancy. The ad hoc commission appointed for this purpose,
proposed the building owned by Mudartha Charitable Trust in
Moodubelle as suitable for our purpose. An agreement has been
drawn for ten years for the use of the building. Meanwhile, the
trust donated one acre of land across the street. The candidates
attend PUC in St. Lawrence PU College at Moodubelle. Thereafter
Mr. Herold Wilson Martis generously offered us one acre of land
near Nalku Beedi to begin our own friary. The new friary was
built on this place and was blessed and inaugurated on 14th
March 2016.
20. Infant Jesus Nivas, Kadri Midri, Diocese of Chikmagalur
The Bala Yesu Nivas at Parvatipura in Chikmagalur where we
had a friary since the year 2000 was taken back by the Bishop
on 28th April 2010. The Province had purchased 12 acres of
land in Kadri Midri in 1999 for the purpose of a school. Since
the Bishop took back the Friary, we planned a school building
36
Directory 2016-19
in our plot and the friars shifted to the new place in April 2010.
The new school building was inaugurated by Provincial Minister,
Br. Vincent Gabriel Furtado on 19th June 2010 and blessed by
the Bishop of Chikmagalur. The Friary under the name Infant
Jesus Nivas is being planned which will serve as a centre for SFO
spiritual assistance and vocation promotions from the Diocese
of Chikmagalur.
21. Shanthi Nivas, Kengeri, Archdiocese of Bangalore
The Darshan College was planned in the year 2002 to save the
surplus land in Kengeri. It was started as a centre for psycho-
spirituality and counseling. The ground floor was inaugurated
by Br. John Corriveau, the General Minister of the Order
and blessed by Most Rev. Bernard Moras on 9th June 2006.
Meanwhile, the new idea of BBM and B.Com was proposed
by the Capuchin Education Board. The BBM course began in
July 2009 and B.Com in July 2010. In order to get sufficient
number of students for the above course, the CEB decided to
establish PUC under the name ‘St. Anthony PU College’ which
was officially inaugurated by the Br. Vincent Gabriel Furtado,
the Provincial Minister on 9th June 2010. The New Building of
the Darshan College was blessed by Provincial Minister on 14th
June 2010 and inaugurated by the local MLA. A Fraternity of
Friars under the name ‘Shanthi Nivas’ was also established at
the same time.
22. Yesu Nilaya, Sardar Nagar, Chennahalli, Palya, Diocese of
Chikmagalur
The Karnataka Province could establish its presence in Sardar
Nagar of Chennahalli, Palya along the National Highway because
of the generous gift of two acres of land by Mr. Sigmund
Sequeira. The Gift deed was registered in the name of the
Bangalore Capuchin Friars Minor Society on 13th September
2007. Small shed was constructed and inaugurated on 20th
37
Directory 2016-19
December 2012 by Provincial Minister Br. Vincent Furtado

and blessed by Most Rev. Dr. Anthony Swamy, the Bishop of
Chikmagalur in the presence of the several friars. The location
being along the highway between Hassan and Mangalore, there
are good possibilities of developing the place into an effective
Capuchin presence and a good centre of pastoral ministry in the
Dioceses.
23. St. Sebastian Church, Gardadi, Diocese of Mangalore
When the new Diocese of Udupi was announced, the only
Capuchin Parish of Mangalore Diocese went to the new Diocese
and hence the suggestion came up that we should apply to the
Bishop of Mangalore for a new Parish in the Diocese. The Bishop
responded positively and offered St. Sebastian Parish at Gardady,
which was so far the sub-station of Madanthyar Parish, to the
Capuchins of Holy Trinity Province for 25 years. The Parish was
officially handed over to the Capuchins on 6th October 2013 by
Most Rev. Aloysius Paul D’Souza during the Eucharist in the St.
Anthony School Premises, Gardady. An agreement was signed
between the Capuchin Provincial and the Bishop on 6th October
2013 for pastoral ministry in the Parish.
24. Assisi Press Udupi Branch, Vidya Jyoti Complex, Diocese of
Udupi
The long awaited dream of opening a new branch office of
Assisi Press in Udupi diocese in order to take printing orders
from in and around Udupi was finally realized. The dream was
realized with the support and hard work of many friars. After
obtaining permission from Most Rev. Gerald Isaac Lobo, Bishop
of Udupi, the grand opening of the branch office was held on
14th December 2015 at Vidya Jyoti Complex, Mother of Sorrows
Church – Udupi. Friars will carry out the media apostolate
residing at Trinity Vihar, Perampally.

25. St. Francis of Assisi Church, Kengeri Satellite Town,

Archdiocese of Bangalore
During the vacancy of the office of the Parish Priest, Capuchins
were requested to take care of the parish of St. Francis of Assisi
Church, Kengeri Satellite Town from 2013 onwards temporarily.
Later on Most Rev. Bernard Moras, Archbishop of Bangalore
requested once again to continue our services for one more
term and appointed Br. Satish Kumar as the Priest-in-charge of
the Parish on 15th December 2014.
26. Our Lady of Lourdes Church Karobele, Kumbalagodu,
Kengeri, Archdiocese of Bangalore
Our Lady of Lourdes Church, Karobele was the substation of
St. Francis of Assisi church, Kengeri and was looked after by
the Capuchins for many years. Most Rev. Bernard Moras, Arch
bishop of Bangalore erected the parish as a full-fledged parish
with Padre Pio Chapel at Devagere as its Substation, from 1st
July, 2015 through the decree dated 24th June 2015 (Ref. No.
AB/AP 119/6148/15) and was pleased to hand it over to the care
of the Capuchins on the agreement basis, which is renewable.
Br. Satish Kumar was appointed as the parochial administrator
before the erection of the parish. At present Br. Prakash Colaco
has been appointed as the parish priest.
27. Our Lady of Lourdes Church Divalli, Diocese of Karwar
It was the desire of the Capuchins to have one more centre
of Capuchin presence in the diocese of Karwar. When we
approached Most Rev. Derek Fernandes, Bishop of Karwar, with
the request, he willingly offered to us the bifurcated Church of
Our Lady of Lourdes, Divalli, on agreement basis, consisting of
the villages of Divalli, Kairdi, Santgal, Ullur, Bastikeri, Hindbail
39
Directory 2016-19
and Kolgeri. Br. Francis Fernandes was appointed as the Priest-

in-charge by the Bishop and charge was taken on 12th June
2016.
28. Holy Family Church, Sundekere, Hassan District, Diocese
of Chikmagaluru
At the request of Most Rev. Anthonyswamy, Bishop of

MISSION OF BHOPAL ARCHDIOCESE

30. Shanthi Nilaya, Catholic Church, Itarsi, Archdiocese of Bhopal
On his assuming the charge of the archdiocese of Bhopal,
Archbishop Eugene D’Souza invited the Capuchins to work in the
newly carved out diocese. After due negotiations the Maltese
Capuchin Province took charge of the Bhopal Mission in 1966,
and the district of Hoshangabad was entrusted to their care. The
Church of Sacred Heart of Jesus, Itarsi, was made the residence
of the Superior Regular. The Provincial Chapter of 1987 voted in
favour of accepting the State of Madhya Pradesh as the mission
of the Holy Trinity Province. Since then some more friars have
been working in the mission.
In 1997, when Br. Vincent Gabriel Furtado was the Provincial
Minister the new Friary was completed. In 1998 the new church
was blessed and inaugurated by Archbishop Pascal Topno S.J.
31. Vianney Sadan, Bhopal, Archdiocese of Bhopal
In 1987 after having decided to accept Madhya Pradesh as its
mission territory, the Province sent three friars at the invitation
of the Archbishop Eugene D’Souza. They made Seva Sadan
at Tulsi Nagar as their residence. However as the Archbishop
required Seva Sadan to conduct his own minor seminary, our
friars had to move out and find a new shelter in a rented house
at Nehru Nagar.
A portion of Seva Sadan parish was entrusted to them for
pastoral care. With a view to building a friary, a parish church
and a school, 10 acres of land was purchased at Barkhedi Khurd
at a distance of 4 km. from Nehru Nagar. The distance made the
immediate realization of the plan impossible and hence another
plot of land was purchased at Nehru Nagar itself and a prayer
hall cum residence was constructed, named after St. John Mary
Vianney. It is now raised to the status of a parish.

ST. PIO DELEGATION OF SRI LANKA
The Sri Lankan mission began with the idea of the international
solidarity of the Order gathering its momentum. At the request
of the then general minister Br. John Corriveau, who made a
personal plea to the provincial minister and his Definitory to
assist the Vice Province of Pakistan in the formation of the novices
in Sri Lanka, the provincial minister, Br. Vincent Gabriel Furtado,
met the Archbishop of Colombo to see to the implementation
of the proposal. The Archbishop in his letter dated February
50
Directory 2016-19
8, 2001 gave the written permission to establish a religious

house of the Order in his Archdiocese. An agreement between
the Archdiocese of Colombo and the Holy Trinity province
of Karnataka was signed on May 27, 2001. It envisaged the
implantation of the Order and the opening of a novitiate house
to form brothers hailing from Pakistan. Initially the TOR brothers
in Sri Lanka agreed to put at the disposal of the Capuchins their
house in Katuwapitiya for this purpose. This house, named as
Padre Pio Ashram was canonically established as the novitiate
house by the general minister on June 28, 2001 at the request
of the then provincial minister Br. Andrew Anil Sequeira. Br.
Liguory Noronha was the first Novice master who began the
Novitiate with 7 novices from Pakistan.
The Provincial Chapter of Holy Trinity Province, Karnataka held
from 16 – 21 April 2007 resolved to raise the mission of Sri Lanka
to a Province Delegation. Accordingly the General Minister
raised the Sri Lanka mission to a Delegation through his letter
dated September 29, 2007. The Provincial Definitory appointed

45. Padre Pio Nivasa, Pallansena, Archdiocese of Colombo,
Srilanka
As the friars were living in the rented house offered by the TOR
brothers at Katuwapitiya, the need was felt to have a house of
our own. A plot of land with an existing house was purchased
at Pallansena and the Novitiate was shifted from Katuwapitiya
to the new plot. When the new Friary was inaugurated in
Mawila, the Novitiate was shifted there on a permanent basis.
The Pallansena is being used from September 2007 as a centre
of formation for Postulants.
46. St. Pio Friary, Mawila, Diocese of Chilaw, Srilanka
The need for a permanent Novitiate house was felt very much and
hence the friars purchase a piece of land in Mawila, Nathandiya,
three kilometers from the Colombo – Chilaw highway. Through
the assistance of Belgium Province a beautiful Novitiate House
was constructed and inaugurated on September 8, 2007. The
house was canonically erected by the Provincial Minister Br.
Vincent G. Furtado through the decree dated 2 August 2007.

52
Directory 2016-19
Province of Pakistan and the Holy Trinity Province of Karnataka

envisaged the philosophical formation of brothers from Pakistan
to be held in the National Seminary at Kandy. The Brothers
stayed for one year in a rented house belonging to Caretians
and then succeeded to purchase a small house nearer to the
National Seminary. As this place too was not found convenient,
a new plot at 32 Meekanuwa Road was purchased with the help
of finances from the Economic Solidarity and the Province of
Belgium. The new house of Philosophy was blessed by Most
Rev. Vianney Fernando, the Bishop of Kandy and inaugurated by
Br. Vincent Gabriel Furtado the Provincial Minister of Karnataka
on February 6, 2010.
CUSTODY OF JAPAN
48. Japan Mission

The early days of catholic mission activity in Japan go back to
the time of St. Francis Xavier (1549). Due to various upheavals,
the Catholic faith did not sink very deep in the Japanese soil. In
1930 the Canadian Franciscans came to Okinawa, the island in
the southern part of Japan, but were not allowed to proselytize.
In 1935 the Japanese military government forced all foreigners
to leave Okinawa in preparation for World War II. In 1947,
Rome assigned the post-war protectorates of Amami Oshima
and Okinawa Island chain, then called Ryukyu Islands, to the
Capuchin province of St. Joseph which covered Detroit & New
York. At the request of the Holy See, two American Capuchins,
Brs. Felix Ley and Alban Raymond Bartoldus arrived in Amami
Oshima, north of Okinawa, on September 5, 1947. When
Amami Oshima was repatriated to Japan around 1949 the
Capuchins concentrated their missionary efforts in the Okinawa
Island chain.
53
Directory 2016-19
When the Capuchins arrived in Amami Oshima after World War

II they were met by an ex-seminarian, who later became the
first Bishop of the Naha diocese of Okinawa. In 1949 Br. Felix
Ley was appointed administrator with the title of Monsignor.
He became the titular bishop in 1968 until the day he died in
January 1972.
In 1951 the the Capuchin General invited other missionaries
to take over ministry in Amami Oshima. The first American
Conventuals arrived in 1952 and by 1955 they had taken over
the full responsibility for these islands north of the Ryukyu
Islands. Since 1955 the Capuchin responsibility was limited to
the southern Ryukyus, the area the present diocese of Naha.
In January 1972, when the Ryukyu Islands were repatriated to
Japan and became the new Japanese Province of Okinawa, Rome
also established it as a new Japanese Diocese of Naha. Br. Peter
Baptist Ishigami, the first Japanese Capuchin was appointed the
first bishop of the new diocese of Naha, Okinawa.
After the split of the Province of St. Joseph to form the new
Province of St. Mary for New York/New England, the territory
became this new Province’s Mission, though some from the
separated province of St. Joseph continued to serve in their
missionary work in the islands of Okinawa.
At the custody chapter of 1997, it was decided that the future
of the Capuchin presence in Japan required them to renew
their efforts to expand outside of Okinawa. The Provincial
of St. Mary’s province and the General Minister appealed to
Holy Trinity Province for personnel and the custody of Japan
welcomed the willingness on the part of the Holy Trinity
province to collaborate in this effort. The Provincial Minister Br.
Vincent G. Furtado visited Japan in December 1997 and studied
54
Directory 2016-19
the situation in preparation to send the friars.
In January 1999, Bros. Claver D’Souza and Alexander Daniel from
the Holy Trinity Province joined the Capuchins on Okinawa as
pioneers of the new Japan Custody Cooperative. Two years later,
on September 25, 2001, a 2nd batch of friars, Bros. Edwin Monis
and Denis Fernandes, arrived on Okinawa. In May 2000, Bros.
Claver D’Souza, Alexander Daniel and Wayne, an American friar,
moved out of Okinawa to begin ministry in the Saitama diocese,
then called Urawa diocese, and to establish the first Capuchin
fraternity in the mainland, in fulfillment of the decisions of
1997 chapter. There are six friars from the Province working in
Japan. Based on the spirit of collaboration, as agreed upon, the
Holy Trinity Province will maintain a presence of 10 friars in the
custody of Japan by 2012.

HISTORY OF
ST. CHARLES LWANGA CUSTODY, UGANDA
The challenge to the Indian Capuchin Provinces to undertake
missionary commitments outside their country was first
addressed to the Provincial Ministers by Br. Roberto Carraro, the
General Minister and his Defmitory through a letter dated July
12,1986. On its part the Provincial Chapter of Karnataka-Goa-
Maharashtra celebrated in April 1987 firmly resolved to opt for
mission abroad. At the meeting of the Conference of Capuchin
Major Superiors of India in June 1987, the Ugandan territory
fell to the lot of K.GM. Province. On June 24,1987 Br. Liguory
Noronha, the Provincial Minister, sought permission from the
General Minister for the K.GM. friars to move into Uganda. In
his letter dated September 27, 1987 (Pro, No. 01447/87) the
General Minister decreed: “that the territory of Uganda be
assigned to the Province of the Most Holy Trinity of K.GM. and
that steps be taken for an eventual Capuchin presence in that
nation, blessed by the blood of martyrs...”
The necessary formalities being completed, the first batch of
four brave missionaries set out for Uganda in January 1988.
Accepting the invitation of Br. Gandolf Wild, the Vice Provincial
of Tanzania and realizing the advantage of becoming familiar
with the Capuchin way of life in the African perspective, they
first landed in Tanzania to spend a few months with the
friarsoverthere.
The auspicious day to set foot on the holy soil of Uganda had
come on October 1,1988 the feast of St. Theresa of Child Jesus,
the patroness of the missions. With the sad memory of the
tragic yet sacrificial death of Br. Walter Saldanha on March 31,
1988 in a road accident still lingering in their minds, the three
friars moved into the Diocese of Kiyinda-Mityana.
138
Directory 2016-19
A three-phased programme was chalked out as a minimum

long-term goal to be attained by the friars in Uganda: i)
Establishment of a community and service to the local church; ii)
Focus on vocation promotion; and iii) Working out a formation
programme. The implantation of the Order in Uganda has been
the general intention of the Capuchin presence there.
Ever since the Mission of Uganda has grown and It deemed
fit to raise this mission to the status of a Custody. Everything
being in favour of this, the General Minister with his Decree
(Pro. No. 00587/97) established the presence of Holy Trinity
Province of K.G.M. in Uganda to the status of Custody of the
same Province with effect from August 2. 1997. By the same
Decree the General Definitory appointed Br. Lawrence Dilraj
Sequeira as the Superior Regular, Br. Gerald Pancratius Pinto
as the First Councilor and Br. John Dinesh Mendonca as the
Second Councilor.
The Second Ordinary Chapter of the Custody was celebrated
from July 25-28, 2000 in which Br. Lawrence was confirmed
as the Superior Regular and Br. William Andrade and Br. John
Fernandes as the Councillors
The Third Ordinary Chapter of the Custody was celebrated in
July 2003 and Br. William Andrade was elected as the Superior
Regular and Br. Leo Lobo and John Fernandes as his councillors
The Fourth Ordinary Chapter of the Custody was celebrated in
July 2006 and Br. John Fernandes was elected as the Superior
Regular and Br. Maxim Dsilva and Br. Prakash Lobo as his
councillors
The Fifth Ordinary Chapter of the Custody was celebrated on
July 27, 2009 at Kabulamuliro and Br. John Fernandes was re-
elected as the Superior Regular and Br. Maxim D’Silva and Br.
Emmanuel Marie Masereka as his councillors.
The Sixth Ordinary Chapter of the Custody was celebrated from
8-13 October, 2012 at Kabulamuliro and Br. Francis Furtado was
139
Directory 2016-19
elected as the Superior Regular and Br. Olowo Francis and Br.
Muhasa Michael as his Councillors.
The Seventh Ordinary Chapter was celebrated in 19-23 October
2015 at Kabulamuliro and Br. Godwin Ogam was elected as
the Superior Regular and Br. Francis Olowo and Br. Arulappa
Balavendra as his councillors.
1. St. Joseph’s Parish, Busunju, Diocese of Kiyinda-Mityana
On November 1, 1989 the Bishop of the Diocese of Kiyinda-
Mityana entrusted the friars with the care of the Parish of
Busunju. This is the first fraternity established in Uganda.
The Diocese is spread over an area of 11,965 sq. kms., with a
population of about 700,000 of whom 49% are Catholics, 38%
are Christians and 13% Muslims.
The parish of St. Joseph was specially carved out for the
Capuchins. The area of the parish is about 100 sq. kms. and it
has 11 sub-parishes.
The fiercest battles were fought in this area which was badly
damaged during the prolonged war. The people, who had fled
during the war, are now returning and rehabilitating their farms
and houses. Besides pastoral work, another task of the friars
is to revive the confidence of the people in themselves and in
God, and assist them in their gigantic task of rehabilitating their
homes and property.
The friars also look after the Government Aided Primary School
attached to the parish and run St. Francis Senior Secondary
School.
2. St. Theresa’s Church, Kakira, Diocese of Jinja
When the second batch of 3 friars moved into Uganda in
January 1991 raising their number to six, the friars moved into
the Diocese of Jinja. OnMarch4,1991 the kind Bishop of Jinja
entrusted to the Capuchins the pastoral care of St. Theresa’s
Church at Kakira.
140
Directory 2016-19
The Diocese of Jinja is about 80 kms to the southwest of

Kampala. It is predominantly an industrial area. Hence it is
more thickly populated. The parish of St. Theresa in Kakira is
a well-established parish, run by the Mill Hill Fathers. It has
about 11,000 Catholic population. About 50% of the adults are
employed either in the local sugar factory or in its subsidiaries.
The parish has 15 sub-parishes spread over an area of about
200 sq. kms.
3. Mirembe Novitiate House (Portiuncula), Kabbega, Diocese
of Kiyinda-Mityana
With a view ‘‘to forming Ugandan Capuchins on Ugandan soil’’
vocation promotion and formation programme began to take
shape along with other pastoral and developmental activities.
After a stay of five years, the friars started the process of
recruiting the native vocations in 1994. To begin with, there
were 4 candidates and a postulant that year. The formation
house at Mirembe, blessed on August 2, 1994 has since begun
to accommodate the candidates recruited for the Order. The
Novitiate was canonically established on June 25, 1996 and the
first batch of novices started their religiousformation.
4. Padre Pio Friary, Kabulamuliro, Kisubi, Arch-diocese of
Kampala
Along the Kampala-Entebbe Highway, the Cardinal of Kampala
donated a land to the Capuchins. Here, a house for the Postulancy
has been constructed. There are plans to make the residence of
the Superior Regular, here in the nearfuture.
5. St. Lawrence Brindisi Fraternity, Kanyogoga, Diocese of
Kiyinda-Mityana
This Friary lies some 70 kms away from Kampala and 14 kms
from Busunju. This house is specially built for the Post-Novitiate
formation. The friary is surrounded with a parish, a senior
secondary school and a primary school.
