Bible Week celebrated

Gospel week

The Aspirants and Postulants celebrated the Bible Week from March 20-25, 2015 at Aspirantate, Barasat. The day began with the Enthronement of the Bible. “It is no longer I who live but Christ who lives in me” (Gal.2:20). These are not just words but a lived experience of St. Paul. A similar passion was kindled in us, during the six full days of delving deep into the Bible. Were not our hearts burning within us while we were reading and learning very many things from the Bible these days? Yes. It helped us to become more aware of the presence of God in us. The wonderful experience made us to fall in love with the WORD OF GOD, rather, with Jesus Himself. The Bible week was indeed been a source of meeting with God and we learned many new things through puzzles, action songs, quiz, self-composed gospel songs, parables, miracles, shadow play, tableau, mime, mono act, dance drama etc. “I came to know more about Jesus and his life and teaching” says Anima. “I learnt to live the Word of God. I am more interested in reading the Bible now” added another. “Now I am able to visualize the gospel scenes as it happened at the time of Jesus” commented Premica. “I learnt to identify myself with the gospel personages” says Salomi. We shall continue to read the Word of God and nourish our spiritual life. We thank our dear Sr. Superior Sr. Lily Perumpettikunnel and  Sr.Alitrice Warjri, our Assistant for giving us this golden opportunity and animating and guiding us to know more about the Bible. May the good Lord bless you dear Sisters!
