13th July 2025
The new Catechism academic year at St. John the Evangelist Church, Palam, began with a beautiful Holy Mass dedicated to our catechism children and teachers. The Eucharistic celebration was led by Rev. Fr. Sundeep Dung Dung, Assistant Parish Priest, who delivered an inspiring homily. He encouraged the children to attend Mass regularly and to participate actively in catechism classes.
π After the Mass, a ceremonial lighting of the lamp was held in the presence of parents, symbolising the light of Christ guiding the children through their faith journey. Rev. Fr. Julius Caeser, Parish Priest, along with other selected members of the parish, took part in this meaningful moment.
The Catechism Coordinator gave a warm welcome and invited Fr. Julius to address the gathering. In his message, he emphasised the importance of the Holy Mass and the need for personal preparation to receive the Eucharist meaningfully. He also urged all children to be regular and sincere in their catechism journey.
The joy of reunion was clearly visible on the childrenβs faces as they returned after a long break, filling the church with enthusiasm and renewed spirit! The program concluded with a heartfelt vote of thanks by Mrs. Margaret Budding, who expressed deep gratitude to all present for their support and encouragement.
π May this new year of faith formation be filled with grace, learning, and joy!
