2009 CALANGUTE SOCIAL IN CANADA Monday, 20 July 2009 10:01 By: Kevin D'Costa The Villagers of Calangute joined together on July 19th, 2009 to celebrate their 18th Anniversary Social and the Feast Of Patron St. Alex. The Social was held at Europa Convention Centre, Mississauga, Ontario and was attended by well over 300 villagers and guests. Main celebrant and Chief Guest of Honour, His Excellency, The Most Reverend Alex Dias, SFX, Bishop of Port Blair (Son of Calangute who traveled all the way from India) attended the social and celebrated Holy Eucharist along with Bishop Peter Machado and Father Eusebio Fernandes. Music was provided by Goan Amigos. They got the crowd on their feet and on the dance floor all afternoon long. A sumptuous dinner included authentic Portuguese cuisine and wine; everyone enjoyed the delicious food. The President of the Calangute Association, Canada, Antonio Mascarenhas, raised the toast and was proclaimed unanimously President of the Calangute Association, Canada for another 2 year term (2010/2011). Congratulations to the President, Antonio Mascarenhas and his Committee for doing an outstanding job. We all had a wonderful time and look forward to another successful event next year!

Re: [Goanet] 2009 Calangute Social in Canada
If his Grace promises to use the homily to relate all his experiences of the various Bishoprics over his 25 Episcopalic years, I'll be a sure shot to attend. With a Goanetter having a keen sense and good knowledge of Goan tradition and history as the President of the committee celebrating the social, can we have an expectation that this one will be different from the usual Goan village social 'dog and pony' shows? Too many conditions I know, but scarce dollars in a recession economy have to get more value Roland.
