Kapadvanj conducts a Marian quiz for the deanery


 On the 12th of August, the parish of Don Bosco Kapadvanj conducted a Marian quiz for the parishes of the deanery. Six parishes participated. The dynamic assistant parish priest of Kapadvanj prepared and sent out a set of questions to all the parishes by email and also hard copy to many of them.


The 12th was a very rainy day but nobody complained since the rains were sorely needed and it brought an end to two months of drought. Our Lady surely blessed this effort to propagate devotion to her with the much needed rains. Many teams arrived late so we were able to start only at 11.30 a.m.


 The aspirants participated in this programme by preparing the hall, arranging the sound system and computer, being part of the quiz team and serving the food. Fr. Mayank was the main organizer of the competition while Fr. Ivan and Bro. Shaun worked behind the scenes with all the arrangements. Our aspirants got a first hand experience of how these programmes are to be organized.

  Kudos to the whole parish community because every one cooperated. One of the parishioners sponsored the meal, a young college girl was the quiz master and our clerk who can almost be considered a parishioner was the score keeper.


 The parish of Khempur emerged victors and the runners up were the children of Balasinor. In the third place were the children of Umreth. The Chief Guest was the new Dean, Fr. Titus D’Costa who appreciated the amount of work that went into conducting the quiz in a novel way, using the projector to project the questions and answers. He congratulated all the participants for getting high scores and giving a close fight to the winners.

The whole programme ended with the serving of tasty food prepared by our five star cooks. It was a wonderful activity that kept each and every one connected with Mother Mary through out the quiz. Such quiz   make church vibrant today. At the end of the quiz the winners were presented gifts.
