[Goanet] : PROPOSAL TO HAVE BARDEZ VILLAGE ASSOCIATIONS OF CANADA
PROPOSAL TO HAVE BARDEZ VILLAGE ASSOCIATIONS OF CANADA PROPOSAL TO HAVE BARDEZ VILLAGE ASSOCIATIONS OF CANADA By: Antonio Mascarenhas Chairman, Alliance of Overseas Goan Village Associations of Canada Calangute Church is one of the fifteen deaneries (Vicariates Forane) of the Archdiocese of Goa and has under its jurisdiction seven parishes in addition to its own, which includes: Condolim, Nagoa, Nerul, Pilerne, Reis Magos (Verem), Saligao, Sinquerim (Linhares). In the past lots of Villages celebrated the Village Feast/Socials in Canada, but nowadays some of the Villagers are having problems to elect the Village President to organize the Socials. I am the President of the Calangute Association, Canada for the last seven years. I feel each Village could celebrate their Feast on the actual date and once a year in September celebrate jointly the Bardez Villages Socisl. For example the Calangute Village will be celebrating the Feast of Patron St. Alex on actual date, Sunday July 20, 2008 at Sts Peter and Paul Church, Mississauga and on Saturday, September 13th, 2008 will be celebrating the Social with Dinner Dance etc. and we would extend our invitation to all the Villagers of Candolim, Nagoa, Nerul, Pilerne, Reis Magos (Verem), Saligao Singquerim (Linhares) and all other Villages from Bardez, to join us and attend the Social to be held on Saturday, September 13th, 2008 at the Woodbine Banquet Convention Hall, Rexdale, Ontario.(Opp. Woodbine Racetrack). If it works next two years, we could in future have elected Committee for 2010 year representing each Village and have a joint Social of all the Villages of Bardez.
