Annual Provincial Visitation

Ramanthapur April 12: It was indeed a blessed day for the community to welcome the provincial on 12th April 2017 for the annual provincial visitation to Don Bosco Navajeevan  Ramanthapur. All though it was scorching heat enough for the boys to hide themselves under the shade but still with reverential love, staff and students waited at the entrance of the house with cheerful hearts and fragrant bouquets to welcome the provincial. Once again the blasts of the trumpets echoed in the campus with joy in welcoming the provincial Fr. Vijay Bhaskar.  He was taken up by the loving gestures and grand welcome by children.  Children felt at ease with him as the handed and wrapped themselves around him as kit and kin would do.

Fr. Provincial called for the house assembly to chalk out the timetable of the visitation. An article 49 from the constitution was read “To live and work together for is fundamental requirement of the community”.  He talked about the requirements of an ideal community, necessity of self sacrifices and obedience. He added that we have no perfect communities as such but we are all here to build up the communities with love and understanding having only Jesus as the center of our mission.

Provincial spent a good chunk of time with each confrere, children and staff to understand the situation of the house and for the future course of action for its development. In the evening he had a chit chat with children during the time of recreation in which children really surprised to experience a father and friend in him, moreover his concern and preoccupation for their wellbeing.

Provincial by the staff and birthday wishes to Mahesh.
