Childrens' Day at Mpandangindo
The Feast of the Holy Innocents on 28th Dec, as
usual we celebrated the Children’s Day. The mass was
at 8 am, was presided by Fr. Raymond Santhanaz and
concelebrated by Fr. Roshan Pinto. Unfortunately it
rained heavily and most of the children failed to
come. There were around 300 children, if not for
rain they would have been more than 500. All the
Out-Station managed to represent at least a few of
them. Children themselves conducted the liturgy.
Since we are in Golden Jubilee Year and Children
will be having different competitions during the
whole year, we did not have any games as such after
the mass. But we divided the children into different
groups and the catechists gave them some relevant
talks according their groups. Around 11 am they were
given soft drink and edibles and allowed them to go
home soon.
