“God’s mercy can make even the driest land become a garden, can restore life to dry bones (cf. Ez 37:1-14). … Let us be renewed by God’s mercy, let us be loved by Jesus, let us enable the power of his love to transform our lives too; and let us become agents of this mercy, channels through which God can water the earth, protect all creation and make justice and peace flourish” –  Pope Francis.

The Chruch Celebrated the feast of the Divine Mercy on the 3rd April, 2016. It was very joyful day for us Handmaids  as Sr.Dorethy Dabre made her perpetual profession. We, the Handmaids of the Region of India joined in her joy and committment at the Eucharistic  celebration which took place in her own Parish – Holy Family Church, Bhuigaon of Vasai Diocese.  She chose the theme, ” Here I am Lord”  which resonated well with the words of Mary, the first Handmaid  by making herself totally available to the Will of God.  

Fr.Robert Dsouza, the director of pastoral  centre of Vasai Diocese was the main celebrant and there were 7 other priests concelebrated the Eucharist. There were many parishners,  aci family members and her friends to witness her Yes!

After the Eucharistic celebration, there was a small felicitation and  cutting of the cake followed by fellowship meal.

Let us all be united with Sr.Dorethy Dabre in thanking and praising God for all the wonders God has done for her and pray that the Almighty may shower His abundant blessings upon her to become a great missionary of mercy.
