Harmony of Hearts: The Unforgettable Consecration Day of Our Novices

February 2024

With joy and gratitude, we share the story of an unforgettable day for our Congregation. February 8th, 2024, marks a bright chapter in the history of our province of India, as five young novices embraced the path of consecration, becoming part of our beloved Dorothean family, the Daughters of the Sacred Hearts.

It was a day of intense prayer, celebration, smiles, and overwhelming emotions. Our novices, Anie, Aparajita, Deepika, Sowjanya, and Subhashini, were accompanied and supported by their family members, who came from afar for this special moment, as well as by religious friends, seminarians, priests, and the representatives of Dorothean sisters from the different communities present in India. The presence of our general councillors, Rev. Sr. Janet and Rev. Sr. Catalina, enriched the atmosphere of communion and gratitude.

The solemn Eucharistic Celebration, presided over by spiritual figures of great importance such as Mar Bosco Puthur, the Apostolic Administrator of the Archdiocese of Ernakulam Angamaly, gave profound meaning to the day. His words of wisdom and hope nourished our spirits, inspiring us to look forward with confidence and determination.

Guided by faith and love for the Lord, our novices pronounced their vows with hearts full of hope, offering themselves totally to God. On this day of grace, their voices resonated like celestial melodies, intertwining their dreams with the very fabric of creation.

We continue to pray for our sisters, that their path will shine with the light of truth and compassion, and that their consecration will be a beacon for all seeking meaning and love in their lives..

In this moment of celebration, we join in the hymn of thanksgiving for these courageous witnesses of the faith. May our Congregation of Dorothean Sisters continue to grow and radiate God's immense love to every corner of the world.
