Days of joy at our Haiti Mission at the
Estate of Mary in this mid September, 2003:
Two Friars and two Nuns, after 2 and 1/2
years of preparation and training, received the Religious Habit of
the Consecration, surrounded by their numerous family members.
We were edifided by the fervor and piety
of each one. The local band accompanied us during the Procession of
the Mass: numerous friends had come from various places, the different
provinces in Haiti and other countries, to join us in these beautiful
ceremonies.
Children went back to school in a nice,
orderly fashion: we have new teachers, well trained by Nuns specialized
in this, from Haiti.
Our orphans are growing up both in wisdom
and age, before God and men.
Our Health Center still welcomes a multitude
of sick persons and infirms. Furtunately, we get volunteer doctors
and nurses on a regular basis, to help our physician nun, Sister Marie
Benedicte.
Pray for us, help us, support our Haitian
Mission. May God keep you in peace.
