TINSUKIA, 18 May: In a significant move to embrace the digital era, the Miao diocese of east Arunachal Pradesh launched its website at Kristu Jyoti Niwas in Assam’s Tinsukia district on Saturday.
The launch coincided with a special gathering of all priests of the diocese to assess its progress as it entered its 20th year since inception.
Presiding over the launch, Bishop George Pallipparambil SDB of Miao emphasised the importance of communication in the modern world.
“Communication plays an important role in our daily lives and in this internet age, it is important to have our own social media presence. This website is surely a step in that direction,” the bishop said
The newly launched website www.miaodiocese.in, offers a clean and user-friendly interface. It features dedicated sections that highlight the history of the diocese, provide details of its officials and mission centres, and present biographies of its bishops, including a section on the founding missionaries, servants of god Krick and Bourry.
Bishop George expressed hope that the website would serve as more than just an information portal.
“I hope this website not only connects Miao with the rest of the world, but also becomes a tool that offers an authentic source of information, spreads messages of peace and hope, and carries the message of salvation to all,” he said.
The website also includes integrated social media links to platforms like Facebook, X, and Instagram, aiming to reach out to young people and inspire them to engage more actively with the Church.
The launch marked a milestone for the Miao diocese as it will strengthen its outreach and communication in the digital age.
