Called to Be Mystics and Prophets

In the Snehalaya Province, Nagpur, India, the 2012 Chapter which is a Pentecostal event, befittingly began on 20th May 2012, feast of the Ascension. At the opening liturgy the 69 delegates entered the chapel from 5 doors, with lit lamps in hand, symbolizing that we come from different parts of the country to discern together our quest for God.  The psalm prayed through dance and the breaking open of the Word of God helped us to understand this time as a religious and a spiritual experience, a sharing in the Pascal Mystery.

In their address, S. Sally, the superior general, and S. Philomena, general councilor, emphasized that we need to be women of deep prayer, fully alive and ready to live our mission of communion as the Chapter theme suggests: “Together in Mission as Mystics and Prophets.”  So with courage and determination to be prophets of this time, the delegates of the chapter enthusiastically began the chapter sessions enflamed by the desire to bring forth new life in our Snehalaya Province.
