The most special day in the life of our congregation is the feast of our Fr. Francisco Palau y Quer.
The day was celebrated with Holy Eucharistic service. An introduction was given briefing the life, struggle and perseverant passion of Fr. Founder Blessed Francisco Palau Y Quer. Rev. Fr. Manoj Sabastian the superior of the St. Teresa's monastery was the main Celebrant. 2 others OCD fathers concelebrated. Fr. Dominic Dung in the homely highlighted that as our founder we too should be firm in our vocation inspite of all the challenges and difficulty. One should be convinced of his/ her calling.
A special dinner was served for all the parishioners who participated in this celebration. The day passed living vividly in the spirit of our father. We were reminded of our charism and also of our belongings to the family of Carmel during the days of novena in preparation for the feast. It was heightened on 6 Nov on the day of commemoration of our martyr sisters. The celebration of the feast was the climax, thus inviting us to live our life with full satisfaction and love for our congregation.
