24-25 APRIL 2010 GOOD SHEPHERD SUNDAY
Yesterday, a group of six musicians, friends of Lys Marie community, planned a beautiful Mass to which we were invited together with our group of FRIENDS. We all agreed our celebration was fitting for Mother Foundress' 70th. Anniversary of Canonization. Our Sri Lankan Vivienne welcomed us with Evelyn and later Regina, who is with us from New York Province, led us with very special Intercessions. A Gaelic solo after Communion was followed by a rich harmonized Magnificat that served as a very clear reminder indeed of Mother Foundress.
During the buffet lunch that followed our joyful sharing of memories proved to be a fitting tribute to our internationality. We had a real sense of appreciation of our visits to Angers and, even more so, of our time spent at Noirmoutier where it all began for us.
Today, Good Shepherd Sunday, is also very special for each of us. We are enjoying a more low key family celebration.
Both yesterday and today are also an experience of shepherding in KORCE as the local religious, just three Italian Sisters, were invited with our Maltese catechist friends to gather for Mass celebrated by Bishop Hil KABASHI. I have no doubt a fitting meal of multi-national flavour will have followed. Maybe there was even a preview of a very relevant Powerpoint presentation too!!
Joyous moments to each one during these days!
