PUNE, AUGUST 25, 2009:
The community of Don Bosco Youth Centre was glad to felicitate Thomas Menamparampil, Archbishop of Guwahati on August 21, 2009, as he was on his short visit to Pune for a seminar on Science and Religion. The Lordship celebrated the Eucharist for the community. During the homily he spoke of our contribution as religious in this era where science and religion prevailed. Adding to it he said that our vocabulary required to correspond to new cultures and ideas and the Salesians need to have an active response to the needs of the times with the beautiful charisma that Don Bosco has blessed us.
After the Holy Eucharist the community gathered around the Lordship for a community photo and soon after breakfast the Bishop bid the community good bye.
