A special memorial programme was held on Friday, 13 November, at 11:30 a.m. at Our Lady of the Holy Rosary Cathedral Church, marking 40 days since the passing of the late Father Joseph Jibon Gomes, who died on 5 October.
The programme included remembrances and the recitation of the Rosary. The Holy Mass was then offered in his memory, and his grave was blessed. Tribute was paid to Father Gomes through reflections on his life, service, and ideals, and prayers were offered for the eternal rest of his soul.
Deeply beloved by the faithful, Father Joseph Jibon Gomes’s passing had cast a shadow of grief across the diocese. All the faithful attended the Mass and joined in prayer.
