This blogger regrets to inform that Michael Prabhu of Chennai passed away in his sleep, probably early this morning after a massive heart attack. He is survived by his wife, two sons and their wives and grandchildrens. As an apologist he has given his entire life to the church, and worked to expose error in the liturgy, catechetics, the New Age Movement, etc…. on his web site and had among other things successfully campaigned to have the 2008 New Community Bible of St Pauls withdrawn and released after being almost completely cleared of errors.
He was spiritually prepared for his death in every Catholic way having had a weak and failing heart since several years and aware he had little time.
Please pray for the eternal repose in the Lord of Michael Prabhu (he insisted that we do not use the normal “the soul of”) as he maintained that a person goes to heaven, purgatory or hell spirit, soul and (eventually on the Last Day) body.
His wife Angela informs that the funeral might be delayed by a 3-4 days for outstation people like me to be able to be there. Expect an update tonight.
His landline number is 044 24611606 but there is no one to attend it as his body has been temporarily shifted to the home of his younger brother.
This blogger will continue to update this blog with selected files from Bro. Michael Prabhu’s web site as I have done in the past. There are certain matters that he wished to be published on this blog in the eventuality of his death and we shall do so in the next 48 hours and thereafter when time permits.
God bless him and may he intercede for those who he left behind to fight the good fight.
