A Solemn Eucharistic Celebration was held on 6th June 2025 at 8:20 a.m. at St. Sebastian Church, Bendur Parish, marking the inauguration of the new academic year at St. Theresa’s School. The staff and students came together in prayerful communion, invoking God's blessings for a fruitful and grace-filled year ahead.
The Holy Mass was celebrated by Fr. Sujay SJ, who delivered a meaningful and practical homily that left a deep impact on all present. Drawing attention to the theme “CAP”, he encouraged everyone to wear this CAP throughout the academic year:
C for Curiosity to learn,
A for Actions beyond books, and
P for Pause and Pray.
These three guiding principles served as a powerful spiritual and academic compass for the students and staff as they embark on a new journey of learning and growth.
The school choir enhanced the solemnity of the liturgy with their harmonious hymns, creating an atmosphere of reverence and devotion. The Mass concluded with a note of gratitude by Mrs. Savita Albuquerque, followed by a thanksgiving hymn sung melodiously by the choir.
It was indeed a spiritually uplifting beginning, setting the tone for a year rooted in faith, knowledge, and values.
