Mangaluru, Jul 14: The Kindergarten section of St Theresa's School, Bendur, joyfully celebrated the 106th Foundation Day of the Bethany Congregation with devotion and enthusiasm, honouring the inspiring legacy of the Congregation.

The programme began with a warm welcome to the Bethany Sisters, followed by a brief introduction on the significance of the Foundation Day. The LKG children offered special prayers for the management and the Bethany Sisters, and a prayer song created a serene atmosphere.

The UKG children presented a graceful welcome dance, while the Pre-KG and LKG children delighted the gathering with lively action songs.

A highlight of the celebration was a meaningful skit by the UKG children portraying the life and mission of the Servant of God, Fr Raymond Francis Camillus (RFC) Mascarenhas, Founder of the Bethany Congregation.
