Migrant Youth Celebrates Divine Mercy Sunday at Matunga-Mumbai
News reported by: Fr Sunil Pinto SDB
On April 12, around 476 Migrant young men and women, far from their homes in Assam and the Garo hills, came together to celebrate Easter and the feast of Divine Mercy. The gathering was organised by Don Bosco Suraksha Migrant Desk, Matunga, Mumbai, a space that has quietly stood as a point of belonging for migrant youth navigating the rhythms of the city of dreams.
Fr Daniel Sangma SDB, from the Salesian Parish in Satgaon, Assam, presided over the Eucharistic celebration. Speaking on Divine Mercy, Fr Daniel gently reminded the youth that in the wounds of Jesus, there is room for our own brokenness. That hope is not the absence of struggle, but something we carry in the middle of it. For young people living away from home, working through uncertainty and longing, those words landed with quiet depth.
After Mass, the celebration continued with an Adoration service and the Divine Mercy Chaplet, drawing the community into a moment of stillness and shared prayer. Then the Volunteers from Don Bosco Youth Services (DBYS) stepped in with icebreakers and games, filling the space with laughter and energy; a day to remember.
