VISIT THE SHRINE OF ST. SEBASTIAN IN KATUWAPITIYA, PAYING TRIBUTE TO THE VICTIMS OF THE EASTER BOMB ATTACKS

October 31 2024

???? Adeu, October 2024! ????Our aspirants in Dankotuwa experienced a truly profound Rosary Month this October! The solemn feast of the Holy Rosary set the tone for a month filled with prayer and reflection. Our formation guides encouraged us to explore the Marian vocation through a Salesian lens, enriching our spiritual lives. Each Saturday, we gathered for colorful and meaningful rosary services, strengthening our bond as a community.

This month also brought a bittersweet change with the shift of our in-house school to St. Xavier's College in Marawila. While this was a challenging transition, the prayers of the Holy Rosary united us in heart and mind, reminding us of the strength we draw from our shared faith. The power of our prayers manifested in ways that were tangible, as we witnessed blessings unfold in our community.

A highlight of the month was the provincial visitation, which served as a spiritual energizer, renewing our commitment to our path. As we concluded this blessed month, we gathered to visit the Shrine of St. Sebastian in Katuwapitiya, paying tribute to the victims of the Easter bomb attacks. This visit was a powerful spiritual boost, grounding us in hope in the Risen Lord. Let us carry this renewal of faith forward as we look to November ahead!
