Mangaluru, Sep 7: The Lourdite family celebrated the birth of the Blessed Virgin Mary on September 7.
Students conducted a beautiful assembly with a devotional hymn and the importance of nativity of Mother Mary was shared by Nilisha of class XIC.
After the assembly, Lourdites gathered around the grotto of Mother Mary to offer flowers and then the Catholics proceeded to the church for the eucharistic celebration and offered their offerings which were later sent to the orphanages in the city.
The main celebrant for the holy mass was Fr Rupesh Madtha, director of YCM and YSM of the diocese and co-celebrants were the principal Fr Robert D'souza, the manager Fr Wilson L Vitus D'souza, Fr Rohan Lobo and Fr Alphonce Jojo.
