Kripa Foundation celebrated
its ‘Foundation Day’ on Thursday, 15th August 2019 with
much more passion, zeal and enthusiasm than ever before. The serene ambience of
Kripa Bandra was glorified when our Founder Trustee Fr. Joe Pereira and Managing
Trustee, Fr. Cajetan celebrated the Eucharist in the presence of all Kripa
members and the Parishioners of Mount Carmel Church.
All present were delighted and were apparently
blissful. They were waiting to celebrate the special day of their mentor,
legend and philanthropist. There was excitement and expectation in the air with
music, guitar, songs, dance and essence of joy all around. Each of us had a
chance to experience our many achievements; individual and collective.
“Music that stole our hearts” is
the Kripa Nite 2019 experience exhibited on the 38th annual
fundraiser event transpired on the evening of 15th August 2019
at 7pm.
Name of the Game, Abba Tribute Group is
as good as a tangible tribute to the Abba Swedish pop group who have consistently
topped the charts in various countries. The invitation was exclusive with stunning
costumes of the singers, the guitarist, drummer and the organist. The artist carried
a shadow of original Abba group. They delivered a classy show and engaged in
high quality of momentous numbers like Summer Night City, Dancing Queen and
Fernando.
The theme song of the Event “I have a
Dream” was sung at the time of the box collection. The fans were asked to turn on their mobile
flash lights, the floodlights at the venue went off and the entire crowd switched
on their phone's flashlight, which created a brilliant spectacle. The floor was
filled with the breath-taking songs like Mamma Mia, Give me Give me, Name of
the Game, Super Trumpet and Ring Ring.
The audience was invited to come up and
sing and dance before the stage. The spectacular audience responded with enthusiastic
rounds of dancing and clapping to the tune of the music. Many got up from their
seats to honour the band.
The last dance songs put a closing
element to the perfect night coming to an end.
This Kripa Nite 2019 occasion will
always remind us that we do not work, or live or play in isolation. The event
concluded; marking the end of yet another annual celebration of Kripa
Foundation’s mission, achievements and continued existence.
