Hi SaligaoNetters
Re above subject, some of you around the world would have already received the
Appeal for Funds that I have sent (not through SaligaoNet since one has to get
permission for circulating such text on Saligaonet).
Since I was in Saligao in January/February 2008, I attended the meeting meant
for Saliganvkars so that they would be apprised of the situation with regard to
the Church. Sad to say, only 25-30 Saliganvkars attended that meeting.
Information given was exhaustive, questions were answered to a certain extent
satisfactorily. I was then asked to send the "Appeal" to Saliganvkars around
the world & I have done that on a personal basis. The "Appeal" is
self-explanatory.
The latest news (spoke to Fiona yesterday) is that the Parish Councillors &
other Saliganvkars have already started collecting the funds from the various
vaddos for which receipts are being produced also.
Ashley/Rico, pictures of the Church will not show how bad a state the Church
is in. I mean on the outside, we would just think it required a coat or two of
paint & inside the Church - yes painting, gilding whatever is to be done but
at a later stage. I can assure you that the main part that needs repair
immediately & before the monsoons, is the roof. (Leao on this Net - from
Portugal will vouch for that & others who are in Saligao would know better I
guess). If we want our beautiful Church (internationally known because of its
Gothic architecture etc. etc.) still standing, then we got to do things
quickly.
Have a nice day
Annette
