Light of Truth

A workshop organized by the Tamil Nadu Church’s online televi-sion channel has taught young people to use social media to help society” We have to decide whether to beco-me Good Samaritans or indifferent bystanders,” said Fr Jenith Sekar, the technical manager of Madha TV and the coordinator of the April 12-13 workshop on “Storytelling in the Digital Age.”The priest pointed out that social media is a gift of the mo-dern era that offers “a great oppor-tunity to express our inherent sense of fraternity, to become Good Sama-ritans who bear the pain of other people’s troubles rather than provo-king greater hatred and bitterness “round 45 young people from vari-ous dioceses in Tamil Nadu attended the April 12-13 workshop at Kaviri Communications Centre in Tiruchira-ppalli. Madha TV, the online Catho-lic Satellite Television of the Tamil Nadu Bishops’ Council, organized the workshop to form socially respon-sible and committed young media warriors in the digital age.
