The Holy Eucharist was presided over by Fr. George Panthanmakal MSFS, the new Rector of the Morning Star Regional Seminary. He was joined by the new Dean of theology and the outgoing Rector of the Seminary. We were very privileged to have Fr. George, a great personality, with us in our community. He shared a wonderful reflection that focussed on the love of the pierced Heart of Jesus, the love which St. Paul proclaimed in his ministry, that is Agape: a self-surrendering and total self-sacrificial love. It is this love which inspired our founders to find a new way of life during the French Revolutions. Fr. George also mentioned the sacrificial love of St. Damien for the lepers in the Island of Molokai. This love of Jesus is a free gift from God. As children of the Sacred Hearts we are all called to share in God’s mission by sharing this love of Jesus with the whole world especially during this great pandemic global crisis that is Covid 19.
Brothers from Serampore and DumDum Community and the domestic staff joined with us to make the celebration more joyful, although we missed Fr. Felipe the local Superior.
