By our religious profession, we say ‘yes’ to God and to the Congregation, where we are welcomed and of which we are now members.
Sister Margaret Kennedy, the Regional Sister for East Africa, received our vows as representative of the Superior General.
The Eucharistic celebration of our first profession took place in our house. It was presided over by Father Simon Drasiga sj, assistant at the Jesuit novitiate in Arusha.
The novices from the Missionaries of Africa helped us with the singing. We had chosen songs in different languages, and people were struck by our ability to master each other’s languages.
Among the guests were our neighbours, parishioners and religious congregations. Our sisters from Dar-es-Salaam and Mwanza, Tanzania and from Nairobi, Kenya joined us for the celebration. This day has opened a new page in our lives;
it is the beginning of a new story and a new stage. We thank God for the gift of our vocation!
