Annual Picnic
It's time to chill out and relax! The picnic day was scheduled on 14th January at a beautiful place called Gumgaon, 40 kms away from Nagpur. It had a nice captivating view consisting of a little hillock, a plain and a flowing river with crystal clear water. We spent the day in sheer delight, playing games and swimming in the river. In the afternoon we had a sumptuous meal. On our way back home in the bus, the brothers were dancing and singing with joy. It was an experience full of thrill and delight. The community deeply appreciates Fr. Peter Fernandes (Jr) for making the necessary arrangements for the picnic.
Installation of New Recording Equipment
On 15th January, we were all excited to install our first studio mike in the AV hall of Pilar Niketan. Fr. Octaviano Da Cunha inaugurated the same with his melodious childhood favourite number. Our brothers too performed on this occasion and their recording was promptly played back as a demo. At the end, the whole community recorded the Pilar Anthem. We are grateful to Fr. Peter Fernandes (Jr) for his visionary mind in providing us an up to date recording facility.
