The community of St Joseph's Interdiocesan Seminary joyfully celebrated the Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul with prayer, fraternity, and joyful fellowship. The occasion also marked the feast day of the Bishop of Mangalore, Most Rev. Dr Peter Paul Saldanha, who is named after the two great Apostles. The celebration began with the Holy Eucharist at 6:30 a.m., celebrated by Rev. Fr Harry D'Souza. The liturgy invited the community to reflect on the steadfast faith, courageous witness, and missionary zeal of Saints Peter and Paul, whose lives continue to inspire the Church's mission.

As part of the day’s celebrations, a friendly football match was held at 8:30 a.m. between the Philosophers and Ministerial Year Brothers and the Theologians. Played in a spirit of healthy competition and fraternity, the match fostered camaraderie and strengthened the bonds of community among the seminarians. The celebration concluded on a joyful note, offering the seminary community an opportunity to honour the witness of Saints Peter and Paul while extending prayerful wishes to the Bishop of Mangalore on his feast day.
