A large number of family members of Jesuits from Mangalore and coastal region came for the Jesuit family get together held at Loyola hall, St Aloysius PU College (SAPUC) on Sunday, May 28. The day’s programme began with the eucharist officiated by Provincial Fr Dionysius Vaz. Fr Francis Fernandes preached the homily.

In his homily, Fr Francis highlighted the significance of the feast of the Pentecost and the gifts of the Holy Spirit. “If Bethlehem was God With us and Calvary was God for us, Pentecost was God in us,” Fr Francis said. He also said that it is through the power of the Holy Spirit that every believer can carry on the mission given to us by Jesus Christ.
