Foundation Day Celebration at Thecho ( Nepal)

8th august 061“It is good to give thanks to the Lord to make music to your name of most high” was the mode of celebration from 5th – 8th August.  Keeping in mind the three fundamental celebrations that is, year of consecrated life, Bicentenary of Don Bosco and the Foundation day. On the eve of celebration we were able to spend the day in recollection with the Lord. Beginning of the Mass we thanked and praised the Lord through adoration. The Celebration of the Holy Eucharist was solemnized by VG of the Diocese Rev. Fr. Silas Bogati.  One of the Boarders Niru Tamang of Class IX introduced the short life of St. Mary Mazzarello and the mission carried out by the FMA sisters all over the world.  The Auxilium girls led the sisters and the Fathers with the entrance dance. Everyone was rejuvenated as the dancers led them to the altar. It was a moment of great joy when we recalled back our final commitment with nostalgia. After the prayer of the faithful Rev. Fr. Jijo Joseph SDB read out the letter of Don Bosco to the FMA‘s which was presented by hims8th august 104elf to the first Sisters of Mornese in the Year 1872, then he handed over the Constitutions followed by the renewal of the vows. It was a great occasion to bear witness of consecrated life since many people are unaware of the religious life. The celebrant in his homily shared his personal experiences and call to religious life. It was an enriching eye witness. We could see the enthusiasm of the children and the people as they were singing the hymns during Mass. At end of the Mass Sr. Aquila Phawa communicated the greetings of Mother General and all the sisters to everyone. Snacks was served to all.
