MISSION SUNDAY 2024
On November 3, 2024, the Pushpashrama Community came together to
celebrate Mission Sunday with fervour. Friars, brothers, and OCDS
members united in a spirit of missionary zeal, dedicating their day to
supporting the missions.
The homilies of the three Masses of the day were a powerful reminder of
every Christian's missionary vocation. As the congregation exited the
Shrine, they were greeted with a delightful array of breakfast options.
The aroma of sizzling pork and freshly-made dosas filled the air,
tantalizing taste buds and fueling bodies for a day of fun and faith.
The OCDS members made available a delicious lunch.
After the spiritual and physical nourishment, the attention of the
faithful was drawn to the game stalls. Brothers organized a variety of
engaging games, bringing laughter and joy to all. The friars actively
participated, creating a sense of camaraderie and shared purpose. Fr.
Wilfred Rodrigues, with his charismatic flair, expertly compered the
event, encouraging the faithful to immerse themselves in the missionary
spirit as they explored the various stalls.
To add to the excitement, the crowd gathered for rounds of
housie-housie, fostering a sense of community and friendly competition.
The event was a resounding success, thanks to the tireless efforts of
the community and in particular, the brothers. Their unwavering
commitment to the mission of the Church is a testament to the bright
future of Carmel.
