BOAS FESTAS also means Happy Christmas, Happy New year as well as Happy Feast

Hi max joe and all. Not being terribly well-versed in the language, culture or religion of our late colonial oppressors, I googled the in- vogue greeting 'boas festas' only to discover it means 'Happy Christmas'. Has Christmas moved to the month of May? Pope Francis does seem to be changing things far too quickly. --- Original Message --- From: "joseph Dias" <[email protected]> Sent: 1 May 2014 09:53 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [SALIGAONET] Boas Festas... All. Hi Maxwell, I got your email addressed to Melvin since I’m subscribed to the group and I took this opportunity to inform you of a charity drive we’ve started.. For those of you who cannot make it to this year’s celebration you may still want to donate towards a charitable fund which we are trying to raise through the sale of a beautifully designed mug (see attached pic). It is being sold for only AED. 50. If you or other Saligaoncars want to contribute by buying a mug, your kind act will surely be appreciated. Do let me or Melvin know if you are interested. Also, kindly pass this message on to others on your contact list who may be interested. Boas Festas and blessings!

All. Dear Melvin, Sincere Apologies from us and the others too who are genuinely unable to attend this year's 25th Anniversary Celebrations of the Feast of Mae De Deus in Dubai. We cannot forget the Vital Boost and Support too, both -Moral and by your Physical Presence too, that you'll gave us, last year, for our first ever Saligao Social. It Was such a huge success. God Willing All other forthcoming Socials We Will try and be there. Here's Wishing you and your Famille, all your Core Group Members, and all our Saligao Friends too, a very Joyous Feast of Mae de Deus and A Great Celebration on the 2nd of May, 2014. I gather a few might still attend. May God and Mae de Deus continue to Bless us all.
