St. Chavara was well-versed in Latin, Italian, Portuguese,
Syriac, Malayalam and Tamil. He authored the first nar-
rative poem in Malayalam (Martyrdom of St. Anastasia),
the first short plays in Malayalam (Shepherd Plays), and
the first biography in Malayalam (Biography of Fr. Thomas
Palackal). His writings include Meditations, Compunction of
a Soul, Thukkasa (Liturgy Guidelines) and Mannanam
Chronicles.

A zealous priest with a prophetic vision rooted in divine
intimacy, he was born in Kainakary in the district of
Alapuzha, Kerala. Chavara always led a holy life, com-
mitted to God and to His people. He had total confidence
in God and in His loving providence. He had great devo-
tion to the Blessed Sacrament, Holy Family, Blessed Vir-
gin Mary and St. Joseph. His constant advice to his spir-
itual children was, “live in the love of Jesus, sit with him,
walk with him, and talk with him always.” At the end of
his life he was able to say that he never lost the baptismal
grace he had received in baptism. After dedicating his
Congregation and all its members to the Holy Family he
breathed his last at 7.30 am on January 3, 1871.

Acclaimed by everyone who knew him as a saint, Chava-
ra was beatified by St. John Paul II in 1986 at Kottayam
during his visit to Kerala, India. He was canonized by
Pope Francis in Rome on November 23, 2014. Since he
always promoted family values, he is now known as one
of the patron saints of families. His feast is on January 3.
St. Chavara, pray for us.

             Funny Stories
Three Wise Women: While they were talking about the
story of the three wise men, a woman asked her parish
priest this question, "Do you know why God gave the
star to the wise men?" When he professed his ignorance,
she told him: "God knows men are too proud to ask di-
rections. If there had been three wise women instead of
three wise men, they would have asked for directions,
arrived on time, helped deliver the baby, cleaned the sta-
ble, made a casserole, and given some practical
gifts!” (via Fr. Tony)

Gift Cards: At the Christmas Eve service at my church,
the pastor, quizzing some children about the nativity,
asked, “What gifts did the three wise men give the Christ
child?” “Gold!” one child yelled. “Frankincense!” shout-
ed another. After a pause, a third asked, “Gift cards?”

How can I help you? After pulling three double shifts in
a row, my brother Billy, a hotel clerk, was worn out. On
one of his few breaks, he went to the hotel restaurant to
grab a bite. When his food came, Billy, his mind in a fog,
bowed his head for the blessing and whispered these
words to God: “Good evening, Holiday Inn, how can I
help you?” —Bob Cook
