The Solemn Eucharistic celebration was presided over by Rev. Fr. Henry Saldanha S.J., along with two co-celebrants Rev. Fr. Lawrence Noronha and Rev. Fr. Assissi Saldanha. As per the tradition, Monthi Festh is also an occasion to thank God for all the graces showered including abundant rainfall and food grains. The new crop was blessed by the priests and shared with all the families gathered. Around 200 children offered flowers to mother Mary as the choir sang “Sakkad sangatha melyam” and “Moriyek Hogolsiyam”. Sugarcane was distributed to the children after the mass. After having refreshments people went home to continue the celebration with their families.
