Celebration of Poveda's Feast in Honnavar Project







Celebration of St Pedro Poveda Feast in the project. The Feast of Father Poveda was celebrated in the project on the 27th of July with the management team, staff and animators of Samagratha Library, Pedro Poveda Special School and the Village Developmental Work. We were around 52 people who joined in the Eucharist celebrated by Fr Rudolf Raj OCD. He gave us a beautiful homily on the life of Poveda in relation to the gospel reading “Salt of the earth” and challenged each one of us to be martyrs and salt of the earth in our day to day lives. After the Mass we had lunch together. In the afternoon each of us was given a Povedan quote and we shared what it meant for us in our lives.
The celebration continued on the 29th with the Pedro Poveda Special School children and on the 30th with the women from the Kurta Project.
