Kathmandu, Nepal - April 2023 - On the afternoon of April 25, a number of South Asian bishops, accompanied by Msgr. Paul Simick, Apostolic Vicar of Nepal, made a surprise visit to the "Don Bosco" center in Kathmandu. The bishops paused to interact with the Salesians and guests at the center, showing a keen interest in learning about the mission and its activities. The group included two Indian Salesian bishops: Msgr. Nirmol Vincent Gomes and Msgr. George Rajendran Kuttinadar. They are in Kathmandu to familiarize themselves with and study the documents of the Federation of Asian Bishops' Conferences (FABC); the visit to the Salesian work was also part of the program of exposure to different parishes and mission stations to learn about the realities of the Church in Nepal. Earlier in the day, they made a long and encouraging visit to the only parish and school in Kathmandu, located in Sidhipur-Lubhu, conversing with parishioners and youth for over two hours.
