It was a grace-filled occasion for the Council members of the Salesian Family to meet with the Rector Major Don Angel Fernandez Artime on 12th November 2017 in Don Bosco – Matunga. He was accompanied by his Secretary Fr. Horacio Lopez and the South-east Asia Regional Superior Fr. Maria Arokiam Kanaga. We welcomed him singing joyfully the Salesian hymn, ‘Raise your voices…’
The Rector Major told us that ours is probably the biggest religious family with 31 branches. He expressed his happiness to meet us as a family of FMA, SDB, SMI, Co-operators, Past Pupils and ADMA, and thanked us for being a part of it. He went on to say, “We Salesians never feel alone with you around. You lay people are doing a wonderful job in reaching out to so many families where we cannot reach. We need to bear witness to our beliefs and values, and share with others all the good things that we learn as part of the Salesian Family. Be a lively and dynamic family. Join me now in praying the Hail Mary because we know how much Don Bosco believed in the powerful intercession of Mother Mary”.
We were invited to a high tea with our Rector Major.
