NARUKOT-AHMEDABAD, DECEMBER  14, 2012:  Early Morning on  December 08, 2012 when the sun rose, flowers began to bloom, birds began to sing, trees began to dance, and Don Bosco Narukot completed its sweet twenty five years of Grace marking it Silver Jubilee Day. It was also the day for celebrating the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception.

 

The solemn Eucharist at 3:00 pm was held on the ground. The main celebrant for the mass was Rev. Bishop Godfrey Rozario (Bishop of Baroda) accompanied by the Provincial Fr. Michael Fernandes (Mumbai Province), Fr. Pravin Makwana (Rector), Fr. Brian Boothello, Fr. Ashwin Macwan and the other concelebrant.

 

There were many other religious, brothers, nuns and large number of crowd from different villages who participated in this blissful Eucharistic celebration. The Children’s choir was excellent and well trained by the choir masters Fr. Brian and Cl. Ajay. Five of the staff of Don Bosco Narukot who are with the institute for twenty five years were felicitated by Fr. Provincial.

 

After the solemn mass, the programme commenced welcoming the guest by Rector. The guest of honour for the occasion was Mrs. Vina Mody (wife of late Piloo Mody). There was an emotional tribute given to the Late Piloo Mody ( Donor of the forty acres of land) by bringing his Photo frame with March Past.
