On We Go.....Pilgrimage to Anekal

The morning of 29 October saw the first year Novices leave to the Anekal Mission on a pilgrimage prior to the Month’s Retreat. After alighting from the bus at Bannerghatta, we took the long road to Anekal on foot. The trees along the road and the cool weather helped very much. The pilgrimage was done in silence and reciting the Rosary personally. We reached Anekal after a long walk of over twenty kilometers which we covered in a little over than three hours.
We were warmly welcomed by Fr Anil D'Mello and the community members. The Eucharist for the novices was celebrated by Fr. Jerome D’Souza. After Lunch, we proceeded towards the Parish - St. Joseph’s Church. Fr. Benedict warmly received us and we prayed the Rosary together. We returned to Mount ST Joseph in the evening spiritually strengthened, renewed and enriched.
