Hi Friends!

Warm greetings from CCPI.  I happy to make the preliminary announcement of the 16th CCPI Annual Conference to be held at Bangalore. The dates are : 9,10 & 11 of October 2015. The venue will be Monfort College, Bangalore. Theme will be announced later. Preparations and planning of the conference has commenced.
The 15th Conference of CCPI held at  Kerala  had the greatest number of participants. Many new members have joined us after the conference. 
On 19th May 2015 a Regional Gathering of CCPI members of Bangalore area will be held at Monfort College. I will be attending the gathering in which a plan of action of the 16th CCPI conference prepared by the Monfort College committee will be presented.  We must now strive to make the participation much better as Bangalore has many MSc students studying for Psychology/Counseling in the region.
The membership drive, I believe, has to be intensified to make CCPI a powerful organization to enhance the Community Mental Health programs in India. There are many Catholic Psychologists waiting to join our group. I request the Life Members to spare a little time motivating our post graduate  Catholic psychologists to take life membership with CCPI. Those of you who have not sent a Photo for ID please send the same at your earliest convenience.
It is recommended that every region arranges a get-to-gather for the members. “Wake up the World” the theme of the Year of the Consecrated could be discussed in the meet.  

Rev.Fr.Kuriakose Pallikunnel SDB,  the former President of CCPI,  is offering the Thanksgiving Holy Eucharist in connection with his Sacerdotal Silver Jubilee at 10.A.M. on Saturday May 2nd 2015 at St.Francis Xavier’s Forane Church, Pattikkad, Thrissur, Kerala. Let us offer our prayerful greetings to him (Mob.9496003338). Jubilarian’s invitation is attached.
Wishing you all the best in your healing ministry,
Yours Sincerely,

Rev.Dr.Jose Puthenveed
Secretary, CCPI
