Vanamahotsava: Spreading of Greenery

22nd July, 2018 : “Save trees, Save the earth, we are the guardians of nature’s birth”

The time has come for us to wake up from the deep sleep in slumber to create a newer and a greener earth by planting more seeds so that it will grow into a plant, which will later grow into beautiful trees that will give life to all who go to it.

ICYM Pakshikere Unit in collaboration with YCS Pakshikere Unit organized ‘Vanamohatsava’ programme on Sunday, 22 nd July 2018 at sharp 9.00am in the premises of St. Jude Church and Shrine. Rev. Fr. Melwyn Noronha inaugurated the programme by planting a sapling in the church premises. Saplings were distributed to all the parishioners with the aim that there will be a greener earth in the years to come; just as the English proverb says “Charity begins at home” the parishioners with enthusiasm took the pledge to nurture those plants that they took with utmost love and care to protect nature as responsible guardians of nature’s birth.

“Heal the world make it a better place for you and for me and the entire human race”
