THE GIFT OF CLARETIAN VOCATION
****** March 27, 2019*******
Takatsuki - Japan
Today, 51 years ago, Madre Asunta Hori, RMI made her first religious profession in the congregation of Religious of Mary Immaculate Claretian Missionary sisters. She has been called by the Lord to follow in His footsteps. His love has been fruitful in her journey. Hence She is blessed to live her commitment for these 51 years of grace, blessings, commitment, fidelity, love, hope and service to the Lord and the congregation.
As a sign of gratitude for this precious gift of religious vocation and the gift of Madre Asunta herself to the congregation and its mission, the community of Takatsuki organizes a simple celebration to mark her jubilee of the religious profession with a Eucharistic celebration and meaningful agape with our lay collaborators and some parishioners.
His Excellency Bishop Abella, CMF - The bishop of Osaka presides over the thanksgiving mass for the 51st anniversary of Madre Asunta's religious profession. With him are four other priests and one deacon.
Once again Madre Asunta renews her commitment to the Lord in the hands of Madre Francisca Wakabayashi, RMI - Vicar of East Asia Province.
Madre Maria Dolores Salcedo - our present general secretary is with us in this celebration.
Moment of agape
Our junior sisters from Takatsuki community render an interpretative dance during the agape of celebration.
Thank you, dear Lord, for the gift of Claretian vocation You have bestowed upon Madre Asunta. May You continue to journey with her for the rest of her life.
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY & CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU MADRE ASUNTA
