Dear Knanaya community members,

The Steering Committee of KCCNA is proud to announce the venue for the upcoming KCCNA convention at the world renowned Gaylord Texan Convention center in Dallas, Texas. The 9th KCCNA convention begins on July 22nd, 2010 consistent with the beginning of the Centenary celebrations of Kottayam Arch Diocese.

What began as a simple gathering of a few knanaya community members in New York under the banner of KCCNA has now grown substantially over the years into one of the most coveted social events in North America.

When the flag goes up on the opening day of the event, witnessed by over 5000 members, representing 20 different units under KCCNA and guests from all over the world, so would our hopes and prayers ascend for a better, brighter and unified Endogamous Knanaya community with our own Ecclesiastical structure.

On behalf of the KCCNA Executive committee, I like to congratulate the Knanaya Catholic Association of Dallas- Fort Worth who volunteered to host this convention for KCCNA. We are sure that under the leadership of Giju Kolangayil, the Convention Chairman, all arrangements will be made for a very memorable event that we will all cherish for the rest of our lives.

Once again, the KCCNA Executive Committee welcomes each and every one of you to register early and be part of this history making event. Your suggestions and inputs to improve this convention from the previous ones are always welcome and most appreciated.

Sincerely,

George Nellamattam
President of KCCNA
(For the KCCNA Executive Committee)
