Holy Cross Family Ministries Bangladesh organized a youth seminar at Saint Francis of Assisi Church, Dhanjuri, on August 25, 2025, which drew more than 200 participants.

The program featured heartfelt testimonies of blessings received through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary, reflecting a deepening faith in Christ and His Mother.

In his inspiring message, Fr. Ruben Manuel Gomes, CSC, National Director, emphasized the power of prayer and the importance of Christian values in family and church life. “The Holy Rosary is a path to deeper communion with God,” he said, stressing that devotion to Mary always leads believers closer to Jesus.

The event reaffirmed the value of praying the Rosary daily, encouraging participants to embrace it as a source of grace, strength, and spiritual growth.

Gratitude was expressed to Fr. Manuel Hembrom, Fr. Raton Murmu, Deacon Polash Khalko, the Missionary Sisters of the Immaculate (PIME Sisters), and all volunteers, whose dedication and service made the program possible.

Holy Cross Family Ministries, a pastoral initiative of the Holy Cross Brothers in Bangladesh, continues to provide spiritual guidance and support to the younger generation. The Holy Cross Brothers are active in seven of the eight dioceses of Bangladesh, serving 10 of the 15 parishes that minister primarily to minority Tribal Catholics, true to their missionary spirit.

 

Radio Veritas Asia (RVA), a media platform of the Catholic Church, aims to share Christ. RVA started in 1969 as a continental Catholic radio station to serve Asian countries in their respective local language, thus earning the tag “the Voice of Asian Christianity.”  Responding to the emerging context, RVA embraced media platforms to connect with the global Asian audience via its 21 language websites and various social media platforms.
