First Holy Communion at Infant Mary Church Bajjodi
Bajjodi: Ten angels of our parish welcomed the Saviour Lord Jesus Christ for the first time into their hearts with utmost love and devotion on the 12th of May in the presence of the parish clergy, parents and well-wishers. They had been waiting eagerly for this memorable day to become one with Jesus.

The Eucharistic celebration was led by Fr. Wilfred Rodrigues and concelebrated by Parish Priest Fr. Ivan Dsouza, Asst. Priest Fr. Patrick Lobo and guest priest Fr. Vijay Machado. Fr. Patrick Lobo preached an inspiring homily to the children. The melodious Church choir facilitated the congregation to take active part in the liturgy. The whole liturgy was conducted by the communicants.

The joy of welcoming Jesus into their lives and renewing their baptismal promises was evident in the cherubic smiles of the children. Towards the end of the Mass, Rev. Fr. Ivan Dsouza thanked the teacher Sr. Lydwin for catechising the first communicants prior to the celebration. All the children who received the First Holy Communion were given the Scapular, Rosary and New Testament on the occasion.

We congratulate the angels of our parish for successfully achieving another religious milestone in their journey of faith.
