Attn Navelkars! This crow has a message to give Actually, he gave it to me (may have indentified me) so that I can pass it on to you Did you know? Francis Luis Gomes was born in Navelim. Many city roads in Goa named after this great man (F L Gomes Road) His life size statue is also seen at Campal opp Children Park in another park which is named after him There is one infront of Communidade building , Margao (see pic links)
In his own village i.e. Navelim there is one too but the bust seems too tiny as compared to its pedestal. The bust is located infront of the church near school. And as if that insult was not enough... Let the corw do rest of the talking http://www.flickr.com/photos/joegoauk36/5441784639/ I also understand Navelim Church’s Sunday collection in the range of 28-32K. Navelim has about 31,000 catholics. joego...@yahoo.co.uk for Goa & NRI related info... http://in.groups.yahoo.com/group/GOAN-NRI/ For Goan Video Clips http://youtube.com/joeukgoa In Goa, Dial 1 0 8 For Hospital, Police, Fire etc
