Silver Jubilees 2007

Renewing graced moments
 

Yahweh in the OT instructed the chosen people to celebrate jubilees every 25 years.  These jubilees were moments of grace that involved the twin moments of remembering and renewing.  On the one hand, the Jews were to regularly remember how Yahweh in his love and mercy had saved them, and on the other hand, they had to renew their covenant with God of mercy and love.
 
 

Our Jubilarians likewise came to renew their covenant with Jesus Good Shepherd.  There is no better way to thank our God of love and mercy other than to rekindle our fervor for continuing faithful love and service for the Church by leading the people to the Springs of Life!

On May 30, 2007, we joined our Sisters AIDA, MEL and MELIT in remembering the “great things the Lord has done” for them.  With them we also thank God for his abiding presence in their life  who throughout these 25 years has been working in them and through them.  Indeed they are witnesses of God’s love and mercy.  How awesome is his faithfulness!

The joy of our 3 Jubilarians won’t be complete without sharing it with the significant people in their lives who in one way or another have helped sustained their vocation with their love and friendship, sincere caring and prayerful support.
