Bethelhem Ashram, Formation House and Parish

Friar Nirmal survived fourth stage cancer and now known as a miracle friar.....very young and energetic....he said that the prayers of the friars and people have worked miracle in my life....six months in the hospital and many numbers of Chemotherapy drained all his energy but not his spirit and faith in God....he is normal and back to active ministry...half of the stomach is removed but he takes food normally...wears a golden and million dollar smile.....he said that the friars looked after him well......he went into the jaws of death and came back alive....grateful to the provincial and council and entire province.....Bravo.....

 It is a formation house where three stages of formation is conducted together.....

 This year the number is 35....there are candidates who have completed their schooling, some junior college and some degree too....very talented and interest in the capuchin life....

 A chapel for the students who pray here along with the formators.....

 An artistic tabernacle....very attractive and draws your attention ones you enter into chapel..


 The friars along with the students do a lot of work in the garden....here in the garden they have variety of vegetables and fruits like bananas ........In Kerala you have to have a banana for the breakfast..
 A beautiful grotto where the brothers prayer their rosary....
