AHMEDNAGAR, DECEMBER 6, 2008: Keeping the torch of faith burning as it was shared with them by the St. Francis Xavier, the people of Deulgaon Ghat of St. John's Parish, Bhingar, celebrated their annual feast. The solemn concelebrated Eucharist in honour of St. Francis Xavier was presided over by Fr. Manuel Murzello. Speaking on the life of this great saint, Fr. Manuel instructed the people to imitate his deep life of faith and to build on solid rock the edifice to spread God's Kingdom on this earth. After mass the people felicitated Fr. Manuel and thanked him for his presence among them. Fr. Manuel was instrumental in building the chapel and a grotto in this village in 1997. This was followed by a fraternal meal for the people.
