BIS #2181 EMPOWERING THE SENIOR CITIZENS

BARODA, DECEMBER 14, 2010:
The Senior Citizen’s Association of Don Bosco Parish, Baroda, was formally inaugurated on Sunday December 12, 2010, after the morning Mass, by Fr. Nelson Carvalho, the Parish Priest and Spiritual Director. Many persons out of about hundred and twenty five senior citizens in the parish attended the meeting and formed an ad hoc core group that will chalk out the activities for the Association including reaching out to other senior persons who have not yet registered their names.
 It was decided that the senior citizens with their vast experience will cooperate in all Church activities and the Christmas programme. The special Mass for the sick and aged of the parish on December 27 will be animated by the Senior Citizens followed by a small Christmas get-together in the parish hall.
