JUNIORS' ENCOUNTER

Indonesia 
 
Starting  December 26 up to 29, 2012, there was an excited encounter of the four Indonesian juniors (Srs. Ursula, Fransisca, Teresia Tina and Lermin Siahaan). This encounter took place in our house of formation in Jogjakarta, Indonesia. It was guided by Sr. Anastasia Wio, the prefect of formation of Asia and the formator of juniors as well.

The encounter was made for sharing of  experiences regarding our studies, apostolate, community life and prayer life itself. We were brought also to some reflections upon knowing more ourselves in order to have the belongingness of one self which can lead us to our Claretian life. My attitude should lead me to my Claretian identity. Some other days, we were received some inputs about community life in which we are made aware that we are responsible also with the formation of each members of the sisters. All professed sisters were invited to join us in one meeting, each of us was asked to draw some parts of our body (mouth, face, nose, eyes, ears, etc...).Then, we put them together. We realized that it looked so ugly; there is no shape at all.  So does in our community life, if each of us does each own, it will look the same.
  The community is no shape. There is no harmony. As a community we must walk together. God’s love should be center in building our community and it starts from my self  through my simple ways such as  being attentive the needs of my sisters, to listen to them with heart, respect one another, etc. Personally, these several days of encounter was so helpful, meaningful and enriching, full of encouragements, supports and trust. . It just like a “Spiritual splash”, awaken  and refreshing the commitment of one  self and lead each of us to a better personal  restructuration for the new life especially as the juniors sisters who should prepare themselves well for the mission. Lord, guide us to the ways we should walk and teach us to live in your designs. We gave thanks to God for these days of being settled to share and gain “Spiritual splash” and for our beloved formator, Sr. Anastasia Wio who has been journeying and accompanying us in our remarked encounter of juniors. It’s so meaningful and precious sharing. See you for the next encounter. Thanks also for the province for this program of formation mostly for us the young junior sisters. Keep on the spirit and Arrigato!

VOCATION MINISTRY REPORT


On June 26-29, 2012, I went to Vietnam to visit the second group of Students who desired to join the Congregation. There were 6 of them. They all came from the middle of Vietnam but near the border of the North. Fr. Gerry Kumar, cmf, accompanied me again to meet them and their families.

On the month of October to November I went back to Vietnam to stay with them in Saigon for a month before taking them to the Philippines to study English first. This time there were 7 of them because one girl from the South who is the niece of our Claretian brother came to join the group. So, with the 7 of them  I came back to the Philippines on the 9th of November.

They are now staying in Quezon City while processing their Visa and at the same time they are doing their English class. When the Visa will be done they will then move to Zamboanga City. May God continue to bless what He has started with them.
