Inauguration of the Catechism Classes at Most Holy Redeemer Church, Derebail

The Catechism classes commenced on Sunday 17th January 2021 after a long wait. The inauguration of the catechism year was done during the 9.15 am mass. After the entrance hymn the catechism classes for the year 2021 was formally inaugurated. The Holy Bible was honoured. One representative from each class along with the teachers followed by the Vice President of Parish Pastoral Council Mrs. Sheela D'Souza, Mr. Gaulbert Pias the Secretary of Parish Pastoral Council , Mr. Edward Coelho the Catechism Coordinator honoured the Holy Bible. The Parish Priest Fr.Austin Peres was the main celebrant.
He welcomed all the children who resumed catechism after a break of 11 months and congratulated their brave move to come to church in spite of the Covid fear.  He also asked them to invite and encourage their friends to come from next Sunday. In his homily Fr Austin explained the importance of listening.  There should be silence around us so we can listen clearly; we need to pay attention.  God has given us ears and brains to help us listen.  Most importantly, some one has to speak, if we have to listen.
The entire liturgy was conducted by the catechism students . The choir by the YCS members added to the solemnity of the celebration.
