Day 2:
28.12.2021
The Capitulars assembled in the Hall for the Eucharistic
adoration at 6 a.m followed by Lauds and The Holy Mass which was celebrated by
Fr. Valentine D’Mello, Parish Priest, St. Joseph’s Church, Bolarum. In His
homily he drew our attention on the theme “Drawing Light from a Family”. He
made a reference to light and darkness. God is light! Adam and Eve were born in
light and then why were they in darkness? the reason is because of the freedom God
gave them…we too often wonder why there is darkness in our lives, if God is light?
it is because of freedom…we choose darkness instead of light when our ego and
negative events overpowers us. In moments of darkness we should go close to God
and draw light from the Holy Trinity, a family and a true community, So, also from
the Holy family, this too is a community. Jesus, the light took birth in this
family. St. Joseph, a silent worker enlightened by the light Jesus gave him.
The capitulars gathered for first session at 9 a.m. The Moderator Sr. Cicily Mathew briefed the assembly about the commission work. The members dispersed to their respective groups and started working on Priorities from 9.30 a.m to 12.30 p.m
The discussions on three Priorities were done and the day’s
sessions came to a close. At recreation, the Novices entertained us with their very beautiful, creative and touching performance.
