SCC Rally
The Small Christian of Our Lady of Fatima Church, Sewree, organized a Rally on Sunday, the 8th November 2009 at 6.00 pm. His Lordship Bishop Bosco Penha was the main celebrant at Mass along with Fr. Frank Britto, Fr. Gonzalo Pereira and Deacon Alfred D'Souza. In his sermon, His Lordship Bishop Bosco emphasized the need of getting involved in helping the needy parishioners through the SSC. His Lordship made his point by saying that when we see the problems of others, our own problems get solved. His Lordship also appreciated the magninimous work of Deacon Alfred D'Souza, George Andrsde and Preci Almeida. His Lordship made it clear that the end of the Eucharist should not be a mere conclusion of an act of worship, but the beginning of a mission of selfless service to our parishioners in need.
The end of the Eucharist also marked the beginning of the Entertainment Programme put up by the nine Zones of the Parish in the Pariah Hall the prayer song by the Angels and the duo of the little Pinto brothers was laudable; whereas the importance of prayer in the family was skillfully presented by the Holy Family Zone in the One Act Play titled "L.I.C." i.e., Life in Complications.
The visit of His Lordship Bishop Bosco Penha touched a deep and emotional chord in the hearts of all the parishioners.
