Good Bye to La Verna Fraternity...........

Yesterday after 17 months of happy and fruitful stay in La Verna Community, I moved away to Mumbai. It was a wonderful experience with young friars....their enthusiasm and spirit made me young and vibrant once again......Most of the times in these 17 months I was out either for classes or retreats.....but the fraternity was understanding and supporting one.....
 The stay in La Verna got me involved in the vegetable garden, kitchen and even looking after finance for a brief time in place of absent Br. Suhas who is held up in swiss.....in kitchen I tried everything and it came out very well....the brothers liked and enjoyed the dishes prepared by me....
 Saturday evening brothers organised a moment of recreation in honour of Br. Wilson Gaikwad and me....it was very enjoyable and fraternal evening...
 Brothers sang and acted skits......it was hilarious acts and melodious songs

 On Sunday morning I celebrated the holy Mass and preached the homily along with Br. Wilson G.
 Afternoon was the farewell :lunch......it was sponsored by Mr. Shakil our contractor....it was biryani ....
 The friars enjoying  the program
 Br. Rector was very generous in his words about us.....he thanked us for the services rendered in the community...

 May St. Francis Bless La Verna Fraternity
