Fr. Sebastian Karotemprel SDB, whose initiative in building a corpus fund continues to support students most in need.<\/p>\n

    Speaking on behalf of the recipients, Ms. Naina Minj expressed heartfelt gratitude for the assistance received. She thanked the Province for the opportunity and the much-needed financial support, stating that the scholarship eases the burden on students and opens doors for their future. She assured that the beneficiaries would honour this support through hard work, dedication, and sincere effort.<\/p>\n

    The programme began with an opening prayer led by Rev. Fr. Bivan Rodrigues Mukhim SDB, Vice Provincial, who thanked God for His abundant blessings and constant care shown through generous hearts committed to the education of young people. He prayed for wisdom, perseverance, and responsibility for all the beneficiaries, that they may make good use of the assistance for their growth in knowledge, character, and commitment to service. He also prayed for the repose of the soul of Fr. Sebastian Karotemprel, asking the Lord to reward him for his generosity and grant him eternal rest, while allowing his noble vision to continue bearing fruit in the lives of many young people.<\/p>\n
