“Teaching Sisters of St. Dorothy, Daughters of the Sacred Hearts” in India

Religious Silver Jubilee

“My soul magnifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour”

Life is a bliss, taste it Life is a beauty, admire it
Life is a promise of God, fulfill it
And life is a mystery, know it, realize it and care for it.

God has called me and planted me in the garden of the Teaching Sisters of St. Dorothy - Daughters of the Sacred Hearts. He carried me during these 25 years as a Dorothean sister. On this happiest and fabulous day, I lift my mind and my heart with a song of thanksgiving to God Almighty and to my Provincial Superior and sisters.

Countless are His blessings and unconditional is His faithfulness and love towards me. As I celebrate the Silver Jubilee of my vestition and first profession, I pray for each one of you – for, you have blessed me with your graceful presence during the Jubilee Mass and for the celebrations thereafter. I thank my parents who generously offered me to the service of the Lord, and I convey my sincere thanks to all the people, dear and near ones, well-wishers and friends.

My sincere thanks to Provincial Superior Sr. Biji and to the superior Sr. Selma for their great love and concern. Thank you all…. Sr. Mary Vadakkekannuvallil DSHS
