The Most Rev. Dr. Francis Kallarackal, Metropolitan Archbishop of Verapoly

 October 4th is not only your Silver jubilee of being made a Bishop, but also the Feast day of Saint Francis of Assisi after whom you,  as well as our Cathedral in Cochin, are named.

I am honoured that you found time to receive me this morning at Bishops House amongst your beautiful orchid collection.
