House of Prayer Undergoes Renovation
Posted on Monday, August 2, 2021
The Xavier Retreat House is perched picturesquely atop a quaint hillock in Baga, Calangute and has been offering a serene atmosphere of peace and silence to people from all walks of life, of all ages, the laity, and the religious for the last sixty- nine years. It is this haven of tranquillity to which people return again and again for retreats, recollections, workshops, holidays and reunions. However, with its proximity to the sea, the aged building and its interior has borne the brunt of the weather conditions and time has taken its toll. Deep cracks developed which made certain areas of the building dangerous for habitation. It was decided to renovate the building. To date due to the generosity of generous donors, the XRH has completed renovation work till the roof of the ground floor.
