Novices Daisy Pondaag (Manado, Indonesia), Sr. Parichat Jullamonthon and Sr. Atithaya Jamoo (Thailand), made their first religious profession of vows in the presence of Sr. Yolanda Dionisio, FSP (Provincial Superior) during the Eucharistic celebration presided by Fr. Jose Aripio, Provincial Superior of the Society of St. Paul, with concelebrating priests at the Divine Master Chapel, M.K. Lina St., Lipa City on June 29, 2012.
Fr. Oliver Castor, CSsR, the homilist, pointed out the excellence of Pauline vocation. He encouraged them to continue falling in love with Jesus and live a hidden, poor and chaste life; to continue to grow in the knowledge of Christ, to be known by Him and be claimed as his own. He enjoined the Sisters to witness to what St. Peter professed, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” He said that Blessed James Alberione underlined the supernatural formation as a preparation for eternity which is reflected in Donec Formetur Christus in Vobis (Until, Christ is Formed in You).
As the congregation is preparing to celebrate its 75th foundation, Fr. Castor reminded the Sisters to rekindle the life of discipleship and cherish the Pauline vocation and mission.
The newly-professed Sisters rendered their thanksgiving song entitled “ I Could Sing of your Love Forever.” Agape followed with the members of the congregation, families, relatives and friends of the neo-professed sisters.
