Dec 15: Nobody else can touch in the same way that the Almighty does. The Catholic students of St Theresa's School, Bendur, Mangalore, who are in grades III to X, had one-day retreat at Bethany Convent, Mother House Chapel on December 2, 2023.
Fr. Suraj Lobo and the choir lit the morning with praise and worship. The assembly was invigorated and inspired to comprehend God's word by dancing and chanting praises to the Almighty God.
As the day went on, the lessons on patience, kindness, and forgiveness were covered. There was an hour of adoration where the students could spend time in prayer. Fr Suraj Lobo enriched the students through his talk on "Repentance." He readied the pupils for an effective confession.
Six Priests assisted the students by providing their services for confession. The Holy Eucharist with a soul lifting homily strengthened the students' relationship with Jesus. The day was spent in a meaningful and fruitful way by the students in the presence of the divine.
