The Renewal Programme, October 2009


It was a joy for us to welcome the sisters who had completed ten years of final profession, to the Generalate on October 29,2009. They were an active and enthusiastic group who were definitely determined to make use of the opportunities that were offered to them for the renewal of their lives. They were at the cross road of their lives, past thirty five years of age. It was time to stop and take stock of their life. The Renewal Programme was geared to this end.

There was a looking back into the past years and looking into one’s self through Enneagram and other reflective processes including the retreat. The individual meetings with the Superior General and Sr.Agnesita, their Directress, helped to deepen this process of reflection. There was time to muse on mid-life transition which would help them to prepare for various challenges and problems that they might encounter in the future.
And what a joy! The programme was followed by a trip to our convents in Delhi, Patna and Calcutta in view of an exposure to different cultures and places
