PANJIM: Archbishop Filipe Neri Ferrao has extended his greetings to the Hindu community celebrating Ganesh Chaturthi.
In his message, the Archbishop said, “We wish to express our happiness as our Hindu brothers and sisters celebrate the joyous festival of Ganesh Chaturthi – a family festival bringing together their dear and near ones. On behalf of the Catholic community of Goa and on my own behalf, I wish them a happy Ganesh Festival and invoke God’s blessings upon them.”
“Healthy family ties make for healthy social and community ties, which are all the more important in our society where the poor and the needy rely exclusively on the kindness and generosity of others,” he said.
