St. Peter's Church, Bandra, Bombay
Altar Call
Despite having visited Bombay several times over the past couple of years and having given talks in several parishes, I had never conducted HSI's Discipleship Program in the city -- until now. The Program was held over four evenings in St. Peter's Church, Bandra, from November 7 to 10, and the response was phenomenal. The numbers kept increasing, and by the final day, the Church was packed.
An altar call at the end of the Program had nearly everybody present there come forward, despite the lateness of the hour, and I can only pray that all those who answered the call continue to walk the narrow path. I am certain that they will be mentored well, because I found the parish priest of St. Peter's - a young man named Fr. Gerard - a good shepherd, as also the leader of the prayer group - another young man called Mario.
