Patron's feast celebrated at Barkur and Mumbai
Patron St.Peter’s feast was celebrated at Barkur and Mumbai on 29th
June. At Barkur, Rev.Fr.Patrick Rodrigues, former Asst. Parish
Priest at Barkur and now the director, Fr.Muller’s Charitable
Institutes, Mangalore was the chief celebrant of the high mass
along with many guest priests from the neighboring parishes.
Parish bulletin, Pedruchi Chavi , fisrst issue of the year 2008
was released after the mass. Rev. Fr. Rodrigues did the honors and
the Editor Reena D’ Almeida was present at the occasion.
The annual feast of St Peter, patron saint of St.Peter’s
Association (Barkur) Mumbai, was celebrated in the metro on
Sunday, June 29, at Holy Family high school auditorium, located at
Chakala, Andheri (East).
Fr Donnath D’Souza, administrator of St Michael’s Church, Our Lady
of Perpetual Succour shrine, Mahim, offered the thanksgiving mass
along with other priests. In his homily, he said, ‘in the modern
era, the faithful should shun superstitious beliefs with due
emphasis on spirituality. Life would be worth lived, if we show
empathy to fellow men free from doubt. It’s essential to pray
daily; instead of seeking favours from God only when faced with
trials and tribulations. The celebrations will have greater
meaning if the members emulate their patron saint Peter who was
the most loved disciple of Jesus Christ.’
Founder of Canarites Youth Association, Mumbai, and well-known
dramatist, Henry D’Silva Suratkal, said, ‘the reputation of St
Peter’s association can be gauged from the generosity of its
members. They are generous enough to help the people in difficulty
without distinction. Despite being settled in the metro, they
have contributed significantly to the progress of their native
people, and educational institutions, back in their hometown.’
Entrepreneur Harry Rebello Chembur, and musician Victor Concesso,
were the guests of honour. Association president, Richard Carvalho
gave the welcome address while honorary chief secretary, Ivan
