Farewell Letter from the International Team 2007-2011
Dear members, friends, partners and well-wishers,
Receive warm greetings from the international coordination of International Movement of Catholic Students-IMCS Pax Romana. We wish you all a happy New Year and it is our hope and ambition that the year 2012 shall pour more blessings into our efforts and struggles in making the world a better place for everybody.
We write this letter to bring into your notice that during the months of November and December 2011 IMCS has been transitioning between two international teams. The new team members of IMCS are mandated to serve during the years of 2011-2015. The current International President is Charles Ochero Cornelio, a South Sudanese national. The Secretary General is Camila Jara Aparicio, hailing from Chile. Our International Chaplain is Fr Henry Jerome, SJ from India. We can be reached through the movement's email address: office @ imcs-miec.org.
This as well brings into an end our mandate as an out-going team. It has been a wonderful 4 years and we thank you for the good years of cooperation of working together rebuilding our broken world. We hope and pray that the same fluid communication and partnership continue with this new team of IMCS Pax Romana in resurfacing our shared dreams to better atmosphere.
Thank You!
Cordially,
IMCS International Team 2001-2011
Mehul Dabhi, Christopher Malano, Fr Christopher McCoy
