The preparation for the celebration of the 140^th anniversary of the missionary expedition to America, Uruguay began with the triduum on 11^th November 2017. Every moment of our prayer service was animated, reflected and depicted from the life of Sr. Angela Vallese a zealous missionary.

The Morning Prayer led us to journey with our 1^st missionary sisters who courageously ventured to an unknown land with their strong “yes” to build God’s kingdom. It also brought us to reflect on our state of life as missionary among our people.

On the day of the expedition we had a solemn Eucharistic celebration presided over by Rev. Fr. Yeshu Retchahar and in his homily he spoke on the total “yes” of the 1^st six young missionaries. He exhorted us to be vibrant and holy in carrying the Word of God to others.

In the evening we had a very significant moment with our co-operators and parishioners as we re-enacted the missionary expedition by carrying the lighted candle and entering the portal of our premises enchanting the hymn “send forth your messenger…..” which was very symbolic and a touching scene of the day. This followed by the recital of the Holy Rosary ended in the Chapel. The joy of the day was extended with sharing the cup of tea and snack.
