Fr. Cannio’s New Book Unveiled at St. Edmund’s
The Feast of the Exaltation of the Cross proved a most fitting occasion for the unveiling of All I Have Is Them (Flora and Fauna), the latest book by Fr. Cannio Cardozo, completing his inspiring trilogy. The event was held on September 14th at St. Edmund’s Parish, North Vancouver, following the 11:00 a.m. Holy Mass.

The honour of unveiling the book was entrusted to Fr. Steny Mascarenhas, Pastor of St. Edmund’s, with the event graciously facilitated by Fr. Jeevan D’Almeda.

In his address, Fr. Cannio began with the words: “Thank you, God, for blessing me much more than I deserve.” He expressed gratitude to Rev. Fr. Silvestre D’Souza, Provincial Superior of the Karnataka-Goa Province, for granting the required permissions and for presenting the book with a foreword. He also acknowledged with appreciation Rev. Fr. Alexander Braganza, Provincial Delegate to Canada, for his constant support.

Fr. Cannio further extended heartfelt thanks to Fr. Lawrence D’Mello, Fr. Ivan D’Souza, and Fr. Rathan Nicholas Almeida for their generous time and valuable suggestions. He also appreciated his community members, Fr. Steny Mascarenhas and Fr. Jeevan D’Almeda, for their encouragement.

Finally, he offered special thanks to the parishioners of St. Edmund’s, whose presence and support made the occasion truly memorable.
