Birthday of our Dear Mother Mary

The Feast day of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, was celebrated with all grandeur today, at our Parish through a Konkani Mass celebrated by Fr Henry Saldanha. Flowers were offered at the Grotto in the Parish by the faithful. In preparation to the Feast, Novena was conducted in the community. We participated with ardent devotion to pay homage to Our Lady. We Novices made up the Choir with a few lay people. Blessed new-corn was distributed to every family at the end of the Mass. Fr Minister arranged a traditional meal for all of us in the afternoon. As a part of the Horizon activities, we had a Quiz conducted in the evening. Mary, Mother of God, is the mother of all generations. We can freely approach her for all that we need. She is not the end rather the beginning who leads us safe, just like a mother who leads her child by holding its little hands, to the eternal kingdom of God.

We wish you all a Blessed Feast of the Nativity of Our Heavenly Mother.
