    Thank you, Fr. Denzil, for all your initiatives and your personal support in promoting different sports activities in Mangalore. Our young men and women can be very productive and successful if we can pave the way for them to move forward with a right step in the right direction. They have all the talents available in them - may it be in sports or dancing, or may it be in so many other talents and abilities. All that they need is a support of leadership that can inspire them and encourage them to achieve so many good things that are readily available for them.

    When we come down to India next time, let us discuss further on many other possibilities thru which we can come up with seasonal programs for our young men and women so that they will flourish in all their future ambitions. St. Aloysius College at Beeri has all the potentials, and above all we have YOU as our motivator and Leader to make things possible.
