The Konkani Catholic Association (Kon Cab) celebrated the Feast of the Nativity—Monti Fest—at Holy Ghost Church. The morning began with a touching procession of children offering flowers to Mother Mary, accompanied by the choir's rendition of Sokkad Sangatha Melyam. A solemn Mass followed, celebrated by Fr Ashwin Cordeiro SJ, who delivered a heartfelt homily. The devotional atmosphere was further enriched by the melodious choir, Koncab Gayan Mandali.
After Mass, traditional blessed corn was distributed, and breakfast was served to all attendees. In a sweet gesture of appreciation, sugarcane was handed out to the children who had offered flowers to Mother Mary.
