Filipe Neri Cardinal Ferrao, Archbishop of Goa and Damão invited pilgrimages and spiritual preparations for the Exposition of St. Francis Xavier's Relics, which will take place from November 21, 2024, to January 5, 2025.
“Celebrating the feast of St. Francis Xavier at the House of Commons is a recognition of the excellent work Goans are doing in the UK. For Goans everywhere, the saint remains a unifying factor in working for the upliftment of ordinary people through social initiatives and public policy. Looking around the Hounslow area and beyond, Goans excel with a community spirit, working towards common values in the public arena,” Father Fernandes told RVA News.
