MSGR MAXIM NORONHA’S THOUGHT-PROVOKING MESSAGE

"Life presents us with many trials and hardships, but the Word of God offers second chances. The Bible is filled with stories of those who accepted God’s invitation for renewal and were saved by His grace. This Charismatic Convention is an opportunity to embrace those second chances, to be transformed, and to walk in the path of salvation."

These sessions facilitated a profound encounter with God, leaving many participants spiritually strengthened.

 

Adding to the spiritual depth of the convention, Rev. Fr Franklin D’Souza from the Karnataka Regional Charismatic Movement served as the translator for all the sessions, ensuring that the Word of God reached the hearts of every participant.
