The Pastoral Assembly was held on 13–14 March 2025 at Shanti Raj Parish, Thanchi. The gathering began with an opening prayer led by Fr. Nicolas Nokrek, CSC, the parish priest, followed by the introduction of all attendees. Guided by the pastoral theme for the year 2025, “The Lord is my Shepherd” (Psalm 23:1), the assembly focused on strategic planning and meaningful discussions rooted in faith and fellowship.
Mr. Manik Wilver D’Costa, Director of Program and Operations from the Archdiocesan Curia, presented the Archbishop’s Pastoral Letter. This was followed by a presentation on the annual theme, including personal reflections and group discussions centered on the concept of fellowship. Participants engaged in workshops, and the outcomes were later presented and evaluated collectively. The assembly concluded with the celebration of the Holy Eucharist.
