169th Foundation Day Celebration - Assumption, San Lorenzo

Today as the Congregation celebrates the 169th Anniversay of the Foundation of the Religious of the Assumption, in the Chapel of Our Lady of the Assumption at Assumption San Lorenzo, 3 events took place - the Reception of 3 Postulants, the Renewal of Vows of 2 Junior Sisters and the Commitment to the Way of Life of the Community of Lay Assumption of 9 Lay Friends. It was truly a joyful gathering where almost all of the sisters of the Province were present.

This celebration caps the Provincial Summer Activites for the Sisters. Soon each one will be returning to their respective communities ready to begin the new school year renewed by the grace of communion in spirit and in truth!

A mark of newness accompanies the coming school year with changes in Community composition and Community Animators all for greater life and better service to God and His people.

	Around 70 sisters will be gathered at the Assumption Sabbath Place for the Provincial Annual Retreat starting Tuesday, April 15! All the sisters are excited and happy to come together.
What adds to the excitement is the 2 days of "Rest and Recreation" together after the Retreat. Several activities are being prepared for all to enjoy with one another.
	Fr. Francis Gustilo, SDB will be guiding the Retreat that hopes to deepen the Sisters' appreciation of the Mystery of the Incarnation. It will be a moment of strengthening communion and an opportunity to experience the BODY -Province and the family spirit so akin to the Assumption!
