The staff of the Institute (NVSC) dealt on a few topics i.e. Integral Human Formation, Counseling skills, Multi-culturalism in formation, Integration of Spirituality & Psychology and Journey to the Core-self. The mixture of young and old added color to the group; the active and dynamic participation kept the sessions alive. All contributed their share in making the cultural evening memorable. The five Sisters from Mangalore Province, viz Sr Sharon BS, Sr Roselyta BS, Sr Agnes Mary BS, Sr Preethi Prathima Fernandes BS and Shalet D’Souza BS participated in it.
