>From Konkani Rosary group ..... San Francisco Bay Area Goan community to hold “Come Pray the Rosary in Konkani”
You are cordially invited to come pray the rosary in Konkani and sing the litany on Sunday, May 16, 2010, at 2pm, at the Church of St. John the Baptist, 11150 San Pablo Avenue, El Cerrito, California, 94530, USA. There is no cost to attend and all are invited for this "once-in-a-lifetime experience". Following the service, there will be potluck reception in the Hall next to the church. The food will include boiled gram to add to this traditional event. The Joyful Mystery recitation will be videotaped for later display on the http://konkanirosary.org/ website and will be broadcast live on the internet. The Joseph Naik Vaz Institute kindly donated the Church and Hall to make this event possible and working with the SF Bay Area Leadership Rosary Team and Michael Pinto (Canada), this important spiritual event will be a milestone for the Goan community. St. John's church is next to the Del Norte BART station on the Richmond line of the Bay Area Rapid Transportation (BART) system, making it easier to get to the service. See http://saintjohnthebaptistchurch.org/. Address: 11150 San Pablo Avenue, El Cerrito, California, 94530, USA. (Note: there is ample free parking in the rear of the church. Please do not park in the Bank of the West parking lot). Although there is no cost to attend, please RSVP to Loreen D'Silva at 1-510-537-3319 or email her at [email protected] if you wish to attend and let her know the number in your party. You do not need to know Konkani to attend. However, as a Konkani speaker if you wish to participate, please call Acaria Almeida at 1-925-924-0513 or email her at [email protected]. Please pass this message on to your family and friends. Thank you. Konkani Rosary Group
