And He said to them “Go into all the world and preach the Gospel to the whole creation. He who believes and baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up serpents, and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not hurt them; they will lay their hands on the sick and they will recover.” Mark 16: 15-18
Inspired by this above verse a group of zealous lay missionaries requested Fr. Xavier Khan Vattayil to take a lead role in the evangelization of the whole world especially the North and South America.
