My mothers -> mothers -> fathers -> father -> brother is Virapuran-appu, as we all know Virapuran-appu's brother was the "rendda rala" and was Anglican. My mothers -> mothers -> father was Anglican and my grandmother was part of a family of 13! but all of them became Catholic over faith to St. Anthony. In those days there was a deadly disease without a cure spreading in his town and children were dying, my grandmother's father who is a son of "rendda rala" went to St. Anthony's church Kochchikade and made "Bara" to St. Anthony that he and his family would become Catholic if St. Anthony would save his children, St. Anthony saved all 13 children and keeping the promise my grandmother and all her sisters and brothers became Catholic.She did social work through the Catholic church and bought forward the New Zealand milk program to Mura-watte in Moratuwa which is still operative for the needy disregarding their race or religion.My grandmother however became Anglican again and was buried in the family walls of the Holy Emmanuel Church - Moratuwa along with the remains of Veera-puran appu in December of 2010. It will be the last time the walls will be opened.We are Catholic because of faith, not because of anything else. So when we say people are attacking or mistreating our religion, we mean it.<a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Deshakirthi-Kalabushana-Mrs-Ratna-Perera-JP/120961051313726?sk=info" target="_blank">http://www.facebook.com/pages/Deshakirthi-Kalabushana-Mrs-Ratna-Perera-JP/120961051313726?sk=info</a></blockquote>
