CURCHOREM: “Grandparents’ Day ” was celebrated at Guardian Angel Church, Curchorem by organizing various activities in the church premises, recently.
The event organised by catechetical students began with the Eucharistic celebration with Parish Priest Fr. Vital Miranda and later to honour the grand-parents, children enthusiastically presented various events like skits, songs and offered flower bouquets, handmade cards and gifts to their respective grandparents.
Referring to the grandparents as the root of the family, Parish Priest Fr. Vital Miranda said that they provide support to the family with their experience of life and knowledge. “Grandparents play an imperative role in the life of every child and they support their children and grandchildren selflessly and leave a lasting impression in the child’s life,” said Fr. Miranda and urged the children to respect them the same way they respect their parents.
Assistant Parish Priest Fr. Ashlif Correia, sisters from the Perpetual Succour Convent, Curchorem and catechists attended the function. Later sweets were distributed to the grandparents and children.
