The feast of the Holy Rosary attracts devotees from various linguistic backgrounds, especially from the Parish, the nearby parishes and villages, and the aspirants. On Saturday, November 9 evening, Most Rev. Thomas D'Souza, Archbishop of Kolkata, presided over the Eucharistic celebration. In his homily, on the theme of saying YES to God, the Archbishop encouraged the congregation to embrace a similar openness in their lives, responding affirmatively to God's call, extending compassion to those in need, and nurturing personal growth in faith. This journey begins at Baptism and continues through the reception of each Sacrament. The liturgy was enriched by readings led by members from diverse groups, with the prayer of the faithful organized by the Mothers' Sodality and the offertory dance procession by the Ferrando hostel girls.

After the Mass, a grand Eucharistic procession with the Blessed Sacrament marked a solemn moment for attendees with a prayerful atmosphere. In his inspirational talk before the final benediction, Father Roshan Tirkey SJ emphasized Mary being the Mother, given to us through St. John at Calvary, and that as her excellent sons and daughters, we respect her as our closest dear Mother. Mrs. Agnes James, a Sunday Catechist, expressed heartfelt gratitude in a vote of thanks, recognizing the efforts of volunteers, religious sisters, and parish groups who made the event a spiritual success.

Sunday's liturgical program on November 10 included Masses in Hindi, Bengali, and English, reflecting the congregation's multicultural and multilingual composition. During the Mass presided over by the Archbishop, 16 boys and girls received the First Holy Communion. The Prelate spoke of the gift of life given to each Christian through the Eucharist, which is to be lived through self-giving. The Feast of the Holy Rosary at Bandel Basilica was a profoundly moving experience inspired by Mary's faith, Fiat, and surrender.
