BIS #2355 DB INAUGURATES ITS EXTENSION BLOCK

KAPADVANJ, APRIL 6, 2011: April 1, 2011, Don Bosco Kapadvanj saw the Inauguration of its newly erected extension block. Fr. Michael Fernandes, our Provincial, blessed the new building in the presence of the Salesian confreres of the region, coadjutor brothers of the Province, fathers and sisters of the Deanery, aspirants and confreres of the vocation centre, well wishers and friends.

The Inauguration began with a prayer service in which the assembly gave thanks and praise to God for the blessing of a new block to our institution here at Kapadvanj. Fr. Micheal briefed us about how he went about acquiring permission for the land at Kapadvanj and how he wanted to ensure that Kapadvanj grew as an Institution to what it is today. He thanked the confreres of the house and appreciated Fr. Ivan Desouza for the follow up of the construction and the leadership in animating the confreres and boys. This new block will serve to house aspirants who will be broug to this home by God’s call to serve him. We pray that the space provided for the training of our candidates will assist the formation and discernment processes that will be undertaken to build up ministers in God’s service.
