As you are aware, our beloved Parish Priest, Fr Michael Pinto will be moving out from our Parish shortly. While it is hard for us to bid farewell to him, we are grateful for everything that he has done for us at our Parish. His dynamism, creativity, spiritual and social outreach programmes have indeed left an indelible mark on most of us. As we say ‘Thank You Fr Michael’, we do hope these two words encompass our gratitude for all that he has done for Our Lady of Lourdes Parish, Orlem. We wish him God’s choicest blessings for his next appointment at Salvation Church Dadar.
