Hi all, Celebrating the feast of St Francis Xavier 2016 (Patron Saint of Goa) An opportunity arises every December for our people, including those crossed eyed and cross nosed, excluding those looking for supplementary income streams to make time around the world and at ships at sea to participate in local Goan settlements bringing the spirit of Goa alive with Prayer and Talent and joining with Pilgrims travelling to the Holy Site of Bom Jesu Old Goa to celebrate the Feast of St Francis Xavier (Goencho Saib). Each one of us can assist local organisers personally by participating and spreading the word, ensuring a warm friendly welcome and the success of worldwide celebrations showcasing our Heritage and Values through the courtesy of workers in the Goanet engine room where information on events once processed can reach parts of the planet that others don’t reach. Let us know of your local event on Goanet. Send to goanet at [email protected] –Subject Goencho Saib Fest 2016 For my part I will assist in promotion and publicity for you to pass on to family and friends . Please send me a note of your local event by 5th November to [email protected] so that I can add it to my list of events. Feel free to add to this list yourself from your part of the world.
