On 7th April, 36 youngsters from St. Anthony’s Parish, Dharavi were warmly welcomed by the community of MYC, Wadala. To prepare for their Confirmation Day, which would be on 12th of April, Sr. Lavita Sequeira and Sr. Wilma Rodrigues animated a day of prayer and reflection.
The day began with a session of the importance of the Sacrament. The main highlight was the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Nearly 5 priests administered the Sacrament which was followed by the celebration of the Eucharist. In the homily, Fr. Savio Silveira SDB spoke about putting on the heart and mind of Jesus. Reflecting on the Gospel of the day, the woman caught in adultery, Fr. Savio urged the youngsters to follow three paths, be empathetic, do not judge and stand up for a cause.
After a sumptuous lunch, the youth played games joyfully. This was followed by group discussions where they had to discuss and share important answers regarding their Catholic Faith.
They were glad to be at Wadala for the animation programme and requested the Sisters to pray for them for their most significant day-Confirmation Day.
