Mother Yvonne arrived at Pali Hill Bandra at 11.30 am and joined in the
Eucharist Banquet at 11:45 am. The Holy Eucharist was presided over by His Lordship Rt. Rev. John Rodrigues Auxiliary Bishop of Bombay Diocese. The Mass began with Mother Yvonne and Sr. Rita Dora walking in procession to the symbolic fountain of water near the altar where, in a symbolic gesture of quenching the spiritual thirst of the INB Province and rejuvenating the Salesian charism, Mother Yvonne graciously poured water from her jar into the jar which Sr. Ritha Dora was holding. All gathered prayed for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon Mother since it is through His intervention that the Sisters continue to accompany each other and discover ever new frontiers to improve and enhance their mission of love, especially among the young and the needy.
Bishop John Rodrigues, in his homily reflected upon the refreshing and purifying quality of ‘water’. Water flows in
any direction and needs to be directed and channeled, in the same way, each one gathered, needs to be directed towards Jesus who alone can quench our thirst and longing for God. He thanked Mother Yvonne for her presence in the Province, assuring her of his prayers and wishing her all the best as she continues to be an important channel of the living water coming from God. He prayed that the Sisters may be a fount of refreshing water to those who are weary and most in need. He appreciated the work done by the Sisters for the young in the Archdiocese of Bombay.

A short clipping in Italian conveyed the message that just as the apostles of Jesus did great things with the help of God, the Sisters, together with Mother and the aid of the Holy Spirit can do great things for the Province and for the Institute.
A melodious choir led by Sr. Aruna Castellino sang “Sono Grazie” thanking Mother for her gracious presence.
The Sisters, representing the States of Maharashtra, Goa, Gujarat and Karnataka dressed in the culture thanked Mother.
After which, they met as one family for an agape meal with Mother Yvonne. Bishop John Rodrigues once again gave thanks to God for this auspicious occasion and the presence of our dear Mother and intoned the Grace before meals.
It was a time where the Sisters participated in the games with enthusiasm and creativity, characteristics of the 
Salesian spirit. The games were animated by Sr. Lavita Sequeira and each group creatively presented before Mother their song and rhyme and wished her well as she concludes her visitation to the Province.
Her concluding message to the Sisters touched the hearts when she said, “The Sisters of the Mumbai Province will be very close to my heart since I came to know you a little better now in these 10 days. Continue your journey with new enthusiasm and passion, giving importance to vocations. Those who love never grow old because love makes everything new every day and you remain young when you love. Thank you for your missionary spirit, for your attentiveness to the needy and your mission among the young. My feet go towards the Mother house but my heart shall always remain in Mumbai Province. God bless you all”.
