Michele Brambilla

Fr Michele Brambilla, superior of the mission, speaks about the celebration of Palm Sunday at St Vincent Hospital in Dinajpur. Faced with suffering "no one can remain insensitive". Muslims and Hindus gathered in prayer for the anointing of a Catholic woman.

The PIME regional superior runs the St Vincent Hospital in Dinajpur. The hospital "has a family touch that has become rooted over time.” During the year, the superior general visited the mission. The PIME missionary met with Pope Francis in Dhaka.

Fr. Michele Brambilla was appointed regional superior of PIME in November 2015. Since then he has worked for the handover of Kodbir parish, which he founded. The full-time position as Dinajpur diocesan hospital administrator. The pastoral care of the faithful in the villages.

Last year, Fr. Michele Brambilla was appointed regional superior. He left Kodbir parish, where he was the first pastor, and moved to Dinajpur. A difficult year, marked by terrorist attacks, nostalgia for the community he left and enthusiasm for his new mission.

Apostolic Nuncio Kocherry George, Bishop Sebastian Tudu and PIME Regional Superior Fr Franco Cagnasso take part in the ceremony. Tribal Santhals, who are the largest local ethnic group, experience great joy and cheer. Bishop calls on the faithful to pray for vocations.
