Ite Ad Joseph - Go to Joseph |
We fondly remembered our patron saint, St Joseph, on His feast
day on March 19. The day was indeed a significant day for all at Mount St
Joseph as it brought us nearer in spirit to the
foster father of Jesus Christ. The community Eucharist early in the day aptly brought
out the mood of the day. Speaking on the holy life of St
Joseph, Fr Hilario Fernandes during the homily, invited us to ponder
deeper on the spirituality of St
Joseph. His words left a sweet afterglow in our hearts
throughout the day. A day of rest and a good game of volleyball in the evening
relaxed us. The community too participated in the games and Fr Henry Saldanha
became the star of the occasion who, like in the good old days, played with his
cassock on. Although we went about with our normal activities, we did not fail
to miss the feeling of joy of belonging to one family and one home, which St Joseph brings to our
community every year and we are grateful to him.
“Every action of our lives
touches on some chord that will vibrate in eternity.” Sean O’Casey
