Dear Sisters,
Loving greetings from the Provincial House, Kodambakkam.
I am glad to have accompanied the sisters, novices and postulants as they made their annual retreat at Manikandam, Trichy from 16th to 23rd May 2016. It was good to see the young postulants and novices vibrating the Power House of our Province with their fervent and simple prayers. Certainly it was a good start for the Postulants to receive spiritual preparation to enter into the Novitiate. The 8 postulants received the Novices medal with a solemn prayer service on the 23rd of May at the closing of the retreat. They were welcomed well by the Novice Mistress and sisters of the Novitiate community and all the other senior Novices. The 10 first year Novices in turn moved ahead to the second year and the entire atmosphere of Divyadhanam was filled with celebration, joy and exuberant spirits. I was happy to witness the enthusiasm and joy in all the novices as they exchanged their sisterly wishes to each other.
