God's Vineyard Expands in the Hill Country  

  A mission dedicated to a spiritual journey is an eternal commitment. We not only tender known grounds and keep them in good order but also open new grounds. It is akin to responsible agrarian culture and today this even calls for more environmentally responsible systems. Large acres of land have become toxic through irresponsible and profit and greed motivated land use. Whatever that motivates us must respect God’s creations.  
  Like in the fields of our spiritual missions too, we need to keep this in mind and our commitment has to be total. It is in this spirit we have committed the Jaffna Diocese of the Church of South India for resurgence rooted to the faith of our founding fathers. We are  no doubt strengthened by what  was said in 1 Peter 2:6: “Wherefore also it is continued in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Zion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and he that believeth on Him shall not be confounded.”  Our commitment is eternal.  
 

Sri Lanka is a nation of diverse communities and we have a challenge today to bond them as one people and seek a unity in diversity. Prayerfully and steadfastly we are marching in this direction.

 
 

It was in that faith we have begun to open up new areas, and the most recent one is in Kotagala in a region where a community that has labored on the tea gardens for many years as the most neglected people, socially, economically and politically live.

 
  We want to bring them a new hope.
