PDDs Annual Meet
The Province Development Directors’ Annual Meet was hosted by the Delhi Jesuit Province at NRC on October 1st and 2nd. Almost all the PDDs attended the meeting. Fr. John Wilfred Lobo, Assistant General Treasurer from Rome, was also present. The meeting began with a Mass presided over by Fr. Stany D’Souza, POSA, who also gave the opening address. The members shared their joys, challenges, and experiences. They discussed development work, training programmes, website updates, and the roles of PDDs and CDDs. They also learned about the proposed FCRA Amendment Bill 2026 and its effects on our works for the poor. The second day focused on the Jesuit response to the present FCRA challenges and the spirituality of fundraising. The members also discussed zonal meetings, action plans, and future workshops. The meeting ended with an evaluation and discussion about the next annual meet. It was a good opportunity to learn, share, and work together for the poor and needy.
