All eyes were on Fr Francis Menezes, our dear Rector, as he celebrated his birthday, today, on 11 October. The day began for him with a very cheerful note - Soon after the wishes from the community scores of visitors came over to wish him; often wishing songs resonated in the house. Though he was over the moons today, the day was by no means relaxing. By evening, Fr Rector must have clasped at least a thousand hands!
The community as a family joined Fr Rector in the evening in thanking the Lord in a very meaningful Eucharistic celebration. In the evening, the Novices put a short birthday programme, with a skit which was very symbolic and was also a barrel of laughs. Fr Rector poured his heart out in a few words of gratitude that he expressed towards the end of the programme. As Fr Rector turns another leaf in his life of dedicated service, we wish him a very happy birthday and success in his endeavours.
