I am really inspired most especially by the vocation of the elderly novices, who upon all their accomplishment and attainments in life have decide to turn their backs on the whole world and face the cross. I hope by your vocations many others will come to discern theirs. may the good lord who has called you to follow him go always before you to anticipate your needs and prevent your falls,may he be a lamp unto your feet and a light unto your path, may goodness and mercy follow you all the days of your lives may he bless you abundantly for having left behind all the fruits of labour to follow him in serving him through we your brothers and sisters and proclaiming his kingdom. may the good work he has started in you be brought to fruition, and may he make you loyal followers, faithful servants and compassionate co - pastors of his after the dictates of his own heart. Amen!!! once again kudos and all the best in you discernment, formation and studies. Congratulation to the new novices.

It's a wonderful testimony to the work of the Spirit working in the heart of individuals and in communities. Could I share a prayer I wrote that might be helpful to you and to others who might be thinking of joining the Society: Prayer for Vision and Courage Lord, I thank you for creating me and for this wonderful life. But sometimes I run scared With cold feet for the future. I need vision and courage even for the next step. Dream in me, That I too may dream. Have faith in me That I may have faith in myself. Then I can believe My gifts are gifts for your world. Then I can serve you and others Confident in your love …. Wherever your call will lead me. Amen.

Prayer for Vision and Courage

Lord, I thank you for creating me
and for this wonderful life.
But sometimes I run scared
With cold feet for the future.
I need vision and courage
even for the next step.

Dream in me,
That I too may dream.
Have faith in me
That I may have faith in myself.

Then I can believe
My gifts are gifts for your world.
Then I can serve you and others
Confident in your love ….
Wherever your call will lead me.
Amen.
