India - The panacea for ills facing the world is rooted in prayer according to Bishop Robert M. Solomon of the Methodist Church in Singapore. In his keynote address at the ecumenical meet held as part of the 115th annual Maramon Convention in India, the Bishop called upon the faithful to lead a life of prayers and unity rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ.
" The message of the Cross is to dissolve the differences in society with love and compassion," he said. Another part of the Maramon Convention was a meeting centering on social evils. Bishop Sebastian Thekkethuchery of the Vijayapuram diocese of the Latin Catholic Church addressed the faithful calling them to crusade against social evils and work towards saving humanity and society in general from degeneration.
This Christian convention, held annually on the vast sand-bed of the Pampa River in February, is organized by the Mar Thoma Evangelistic Association.
