Going deeper into the vow of service of people who are poor in the light of the Gospel and based on life, our life and the life of our brothers and sisters, leads to personally reviewing our vocation and the call we heard one day. May preparation for Renovation also foster times for community sharing and increase each Sister’s gratitude for the grace of her vocation. “Sisters, if you only realized what a grace it is to serve those who are poor and to be called by God for that purpose!” (Saint Vincent, November 11, 1657, CCD X, 272) .
With Mary, the only Mother of the Company, I wish you a happy feast of the Presentation of the Lord and a good preparation for the renewal of vows.
