A Day with the Lord
St. Ignatius Church, Arthur Road - Mumbai |
It was a wonderful gathering at St. Ignatius Church, Arthur Road, Jacob Circle, Mumbai on 13.4.2014.
On every ‘Palm Sunday’, the Gujarati Catholics of Mumbai, come together to spend a day in prayer and in recollection at St. Ignatius Church.
This year too, we had gathered, from all over Mumbai to spend the day in recollection under guidance of Rev. Fr. Vinayak Jadav S.J.
The day was filled with a lot of insights, wisdom and message of God’s all embracing love. The inspiring talks and video clips by Mr. Vijay Macwan lead us through the real meaning of Lent to various actual day-to-day life events.
In his unique style, Fr. Vinayak kept each of us bound to Jesus, in full attention adding-in verses of Poems and quotes from famous Gujarati personalities, the six ‘P’s (Possession, Power, Pride, Praise, Pleasure, Peace) and so on.
The main theme that ran through the day was to ever remain connected to God, to leave behind all perception, to forgive and accept God’s forgiveness always… and to make God our All, since the everlasting happiness and peace lies only in God.
The day ended with a solemn Eucharistic Celebration in the ancient and magnificent St. Ignatius church.
