Being aligned with the objective of the National Meet, there is
expectation of more & more participation of Xaverians from Delhi,
Mumbai, Bangalore & North-East Chapters, so the Chapter Coordinators
are requested to prepare a comprehensive database of the Xaverians
already associated to these chapters as well as the Xaverians still not
approaced or not reached yet. Mr. Sanjay Goel of Mumbai Chapter &
Mr. Hunaid Topiwala of Bangalore Chapter are requested to take a bit
extra initiative in identifying Xaverians of Goa & approach them for
greater participation. They are also requested to explore the option of
inviting the GOA Chief Minister or for that matter Hon'ble Vice
President of India (a Xaverian himself) and find out publicity options.
4.
Father Felix Raj has kindly consented to pursue the matter of inviting
local prominent jesuit community members & take permission for Mass
at Bom Jesus Basilica between 4pm to 6pm slot.
With
these points, the National Meet Advisors, Conveners & Chapter
Coordinators are requested to give their valuable inputs for making the
event a grand success & ensure maximum participation. The quotation

any suggestions / alternative affordable options, all concerned are
