Celebrating Fellowship - On the Novitiate Picnic

Nothing could suppress the boisterous spirits when we, the Novices, headed to Sangam (a picnic spot near Kanakapura Taluk, Bangalore) on March 8. The picnic was not only a time to relax and enjoy, but also an opportunity to build our community and fellowship. We had a jolly good time, relaxing in the cool waters of Talakaveri. The scenic beauty resplendent with nature’s choicest colours was a sight to admire. The shallow waters provided a wonderful occasion to enjoy water sports and also to take a light swim. We also shared our food with some unprivileged people around the place. The afternoon was spent in playing picnic games and cricket. As we headed home in the evening, in spite of the tiredness, our spirits were bolstered up. The picnic was a witness to fraternal love and fellowship which we built through the guidance of Fr Dion, our Novice Director and Fr Sunil, the Assistant Novice Director.
He said to them, “Come away to a deserted place all by yourselves and rest a while” Mark 6:31
