MAGIS 2025 – A Journey of Faith and Friendship in Dharwad

On : 2025-10-31

The sessions and testimonies were spiritually nourishing and emotionally uplifting, helping the youth to deepen their relationship with God and one another. The Eucharist, confession, Taizé prayer, meditation, and adoration provided sacred moments of silence, reflection, and renewal.

Personal sharing in the MAG+S circles and counseling sessions helped participants open up, heal, and rediscover direction in life. The joyful atmosphere, blended with deep reflection, made the experience truly transformative.

A major highlight was the cultural evening, featuring creative performances celebrating faith and talent. The play Maralida Kurimari, presented by the Vidyaniketan scholastics, was especially appreciated for its inspiring message to the youth.

Special thanks to the Jesuits of the Province—Fr. Roshan Pinto SJ, Fr. Merwin Fernandes SJ, Fr. Praveen Kumar SJ, and Fr. Maxim Dias SJ—whose presence and guidance inspired the youth throughout the event.

The program concluded with hearts filled with joy, gratitude, and renewed hope. MAG+S Dharwad 2025 will be remembered as a time of grace, growth, and youthful enthusiasm, where faith came alive through prayer, reflection, and joyful celebration.
