On 1 November 2015 Auxilium Parish Kolkata concluded the Marian Month and also the celebration of the Bicentenary of the Birth of St. John Bosco. The program began with a concelebrated Eucharist at 3.00 p.m. led by Rev. Fr. Samuel Mondal. This was followed at 5 p.m. by a Eucharistic Procession around the streets of the Parish with the statues of Our Lady and St John Bosco; the Blessed Sacrament being carried on a canopied float (vehicle). What caught everyone’s attention was the youth band of Don Bosco Bandel seminarians in their black trousers and white T-shirts.
Then, in the open air Auxilium Theater began a cultural program of variety dance by the children, the youth and the mothers. There was also a slide show on the life and work of St. John Bosco.
The well-attended programme ended with a Community Dinner where representatives from all the subcentres viz. Nitika, Dhapa, Motijhil and Hatgachia joined in.
