ARCHBISHOP OF KARACHI

BENNY MARIO TRAVAS

Welcome to the Website of the Catholic Archdiocese of Karachi.

This year we are celebrating the 75th Diamond Jubilee of the birth of the Archdiocese of Karachi and on this auspicious occasion if gives me great joy to announce to you the starting of the Website of the Catholic Archdiocese of Karachi.

The need for this website has been felt for a long time and through it, we will be able to provide a reliable source of information of the Archdiocese to those who are interested and at the same time, be able for to reach out to the wider community that is present on the social media through our online Masses, Liturgical celebrations and various events that take place in the Archdiocese.

As mentioned above, this year is truly an occasion for rejoicing as we celebrate the 75th Diamond Jubilee of the Archdiocese of Karachi. The theme chosen for the Jubilee is Reflect, Rejoice and Renew which is based on the Prophet Ezekiel Chapter 36:26 which says: I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you.

As we begin to Reflect on the 75 years long journey of the Archdiocese of Karachi, we see how blessed we have been. Our forefathers of the Archdiocese concentrated on the building of the Christian community by pastoral and spiritual care along with the uplift of the community through education and medical care. Our educational institutions and medical facilities have been the pride of Karachi and we are still respected for them. Then there is the care of the rejected of society, the orphans, the disabled which has been the center of attention of the Archdiocese. All this indeed calls us to Rejoice for the many blessings we have received through our God.

Yet now is the time to Renew ourselves. During the 75 years of this Archdiocese It was seen that the “cream” of the archdiocese chose to migrate to “greener” pastures which led to a fall in standard  of our institutions and at present, its effects are still seen. Yet we see so much potential and energy is there in our youth and what is needed is professional training and empowerment of our youth.

At the end, I take the occasion to thank the Team that has worked day and night to get this Website online. It has truly been a daunting task yet they have tried their best to get the Website working for the 75th Diamond Jubilee. Thank you and God Bless you all.
