24 May 2020 brought a note of joy in the hearts of the sisters of the Sacred Heart Novitiate and the community of Mazzarello Convent, Ranchi. The 2nd year novices Sr. Priyanka Toppo, Sr. Anima Kujur and Sr. Martha Minj answered the call of the Lord, ‘Here I am you called me’.

At 1.00 am the solemn Holy Eucharist began in the Novitiate Chapel, presided over by Rev. Fr. Hilarious Kullu the main celebrant and the rector of the Hatia Don Bosco community along with other priests Fr. Jeffry SSP, Fr. Deepak Toppo SJ and Fr. Ravi Paul Ekka a diocesan priest and the uncle of Sr. Priyanka Toppo.

During the homily the celebrant assured the sisters that they are the chosen ones of God and Precious to Him and asked them to be constantly united with the Lord, to be strengthened in their vocational journey. The vows of the three newly professed sisters were received by Rev. Sr. Lily D’Souza the animator of the Mazzarello community, the delegate of the Superior General.

After the Mass the newly professed sisters were felicitated by both the Communities followed by the fellowship meal. Due to the prevailing epidemic the atmosphere was disheartening but the love of Sr. Priyanka, Sr. Anima and Sr. Martha for the Lord and his people went beyond the present circumstances. Hats off to our three sisters for their courage ‘yes’. We wish them all the best and God’s blessings.
