Fr. Markus Lakra, SDB, Rector and Parish Priest, and accompanied by Rev. Fr. Francis Xavier Kujur, SDB.<\/h3>\n<p>The day\u2019s programme began with a prayerful and serene visit to St. Joseph\u2019s Co-Cathedral, Panbazar, where the group spent time in reflection and conducted a short prayer service. This spiritual start set the tone for the rest of the day, strengthening the participants in faith and fellowship.<\/p>\n<p>Following the prayer service, the group proceeded to Don Bosco Institute, Kharghuli, where they were given an opportunity to witness the campus and learn about its mission and activities. The catechists later visited several important landmarks across Guwahati, making the trip both enriching and memorable.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the occasion, Rev. Fr. Markus Lakra, SDB, emphasized the significance of such gatherings, especially as the Christmas season approaches. <em>\u201cIt is an opportunity for the catechists to come together and pray, to learn, and to relax before the beginning of the Christmas Season,\u201d<\/em> he said, highlighting the need for spiritual renewal and communal bonding.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/donboscoguwahati.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/content_1767628766_1767628766-12.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9468\"><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"9469\" src=\"https:\/\/donboscoguwahati.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/content_1767628766_1767628766-13.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9469\"><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"461\" src=\"https:\/\/donboscoguwahati.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/content_1767628767_1767628767-6.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-9470\"><\/figure>\n<div class=\"post-item-metadata entry-meta author-links\">\n                                    <\/div>\n<nav class=\"navigation post-navigation\" aria-label=\"Continue Reading\">\n<h2 class=\"screen-reader-text\">Continue Reading<\/h2>\n<div class=\"nav-links\">\n<div class=\"nav-previous\"><span class=\"em-post-navigation\">Previous:<\/span> Happy Birthday Dear Fr Silverius Amsong SDB<\/div>\n<div class=\"nav-next\"><span class=\"em-post-navigation\">Next:<\/span> Faith Fest 2025 Inaugurated at Don Bosco Institute, Guwahati<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/nav><\/div>\n<p><!-- .entry-content -->\n    <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The catechists and church leaders of Sacred Heart Parish, Shallang, undertook a meaningful pilgrimage and sightseeing trip&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":10881,"template":"","meta":[],"class_list":["post-559","province_news","type-province_news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"featured_image_url":"https:\/\/donboscoguwahati.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Pilgrimage_and_Sightseeing_Enrich_Catechists_of_Sacred_Heart_Parish__Shallang_1767628769-7.jpg"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/donboscoguwahati.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/province_news\/559","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/donboscoguwahati.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/province_news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/donboscoguwahati.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/province_news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/donboscoguwahati.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10881"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/donboscoguwahati.org\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=559"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
