Servant of God Marian Zelazek, SVD is known to me from the time I was a seminarian, and more specially during my stay with him the last two years of his life, from 2004 -2006. I am also privileged to know him even after his death, as I am promoting his cause for sainthood as postulator. Not only I admire him, but also I am inspired and influenced by him. 

The 102nd birthday of Servant of God Father Marian Zelazek – the Founder of Beatrix School, Karunalaya Leprosy Care Centre and Ishopanthi Ashram, Puri was celebrated with great love and nostalgia at Beatrix School on Thursday, 30th January, 2020.
