The Annual Catechism Classes for the year 2017-18 was inaugurated on June 11, 2017 Sunday, during the 9:45 a.m. Solemn Mass.
The Inauguration was conducted with the Bible being taken in procession to the Altar by the main celebrant and Parish Priest Rev. Fr Victor D’Mello. As a symbol of true catechism teaching the bible was then handed over to representatives of parents followed by catechism teachers and two children. This Bible was then placed on the Altar and venrated by the faithful.
During the Holy Mass the Catechism Teachers were called upon to renew the vows and commit themselves to the wonderful ministry of teaching Catechism. Fr Victor presided over the ceremony. In his sermon, Fr Victor emphasized on the need of Catechism and Christian upbringing. He encouraged the children to be faithful to the catechism classes and take keen interest in learning about truths of Christian Faith. Close to 200 children from classes 1 to 10 were present for the inauguration besides their parents and elders.
Please do pray for them and our teachers as the set out on another year of Learning Catechism.
