The
Final Day
The day began with the triumphant entry of our
Eucharistic Lord in procession for an hour of adoration conducted by Eastern
Province and Kenyan Region.
Sister Sujita SND the vibrant speaker shared with
us her practical experience of living in slums, organizing women under
different projects against child marriage, rape cases and other issues. She
practically lit fire in our bones.
After tea break was the concluding in which two
books were released by our dear Sr. Agatha Mary, Superior General - ‘Health for
All’ by Sr. Agnesita and ‘A Vessel of Election’ by Sr. Carmilla. After this one
sister from each Province and Region shared their experiences of the A.C.
Congress and action plan for the Province. This followed Superior General’s concluding
address in which she emphasized the aspect of Contemplation, Compassion and
Forgiveness.
The climax of the A.C. Mission Congress was the
Eucharist offered by Most Rev. Ignatius Pinto, Archbishop Emeritus, Bangalore.
The Eastern province and Kenyan Region sisters organized a meaningful Liturgy.
A.C. Congress is indeed a memorable event in the
history of the Apostolic Carmel where in around 375 sisters, 12 ACAs and 6 CCR Sisters
participated.
