In the first phase restoration and renovation of the Church of the Cruz dos Milagres was taken up; in the second phase the new facility block and in the third phase restoration of the convent and the cloister was taken up. The foundation stone for the second phase was also laid by the Archbishop on April 21, 2012. The main contractor for the project was Arsenio Associates. Each house had to shell out a minimum of 1,000 If joint family, then Rs.1000 per kitchen (as told by one villager) Fund raising village wise "Taleigao parish was the highest with 1.20 crore while Navelim was second with 53 lakh," says Fr Conceicao D'Silva, parish priest of Taleigao and head of the fund raising committee. Cost of whole project expected to cross 30 crores Now that we have our own Retir or Retreat Centre, will that stop people going to Kerala? Only time will tell The project has its own website, it never worked for me you can try here www.cruzdosmilagres.org. 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
