MIHI VIVERE CHRISTUS EST ...another intercessor in heaven...

Last Monday, 20 October, Sr. Maria Demetria de Jesus Crucificado left us for the Father's house...at 8:10 in the morning very peacefully and surrounded by the sisters of the Iloilo Community.  She was 81 years old and had just celebrated her Golden Jubilee as a Religious of the Assumption last March 10.
She now joins Sisters Maria Sinforosa, Sr. Magdalena, and Sr. Amparo Teresa in the Assumption of heaven. We laid her to rest last Thursday, 23 October at the Iloilo Memoral Park.





Sisters seated from the left are:  Sisters Ma. Felipa, Ma. Demetria, Ma. Carmela, Ma. Sinforosa, Paulina Ma., Julita Ma..
Standing from the left are:  Sisters Irene Maria, Amparo Teresa, Ma. Estefania, Elnora Ma. and Lydia Margarita.
