GOLDEN
JUBILEE
On January 5, 2008, at 9:00 a.m., six Sisters celebrated at La
Consolacion Convent, San Juan their Golden years of fruitful and
meaningful journey with God and with His people through the Augustinian
way of life. The Thanksgiving Mass was presided by Most Reverend
Socrates Villegas, D.D., Bishop of Bataan, together with Bishop
Deogracias Iñiguez, D.D. from the Diocese of
Caloocan and other Con-celebrating
Priests namely; Fr. Albert
Delvo, Fr. Jess Hechanova, CICM, Fr.
Manny Cruz, Fr. William Araña, OSA, Fr. Peter
Casiño, OSA, Fr. Roger Positar, Fr. Horacio Rodriquez, OSA,
Fr. Larry Faraon, OP, Fr. Francis Carson, Fr. Peter from
Vietnam and Fr. John Therapong from Thailand. In
his homily, Bishop Socrates Villegas invoked the role of Mary in the
life of the Golden Jubilarians; Sr. Cecilia Maceren, Sr. Catalina
Ayalin, Sr. Eduarda de San Jose, Sr. Emiliana de Jesus and Sr. Martha
Geroche. With humor, the good Bishop affirmed that the
Jubilarians were more beautiful that Jubilee day than the past ordinary
days as he saw in them a glow which was exceedingly and very naturally
flowing from their faces. As inspired by the Blessed Virgin Mary, the
event was indeed a celebration of the FIAT – a YES to the Lord which
the Jubilarians first pronounced fifty years ago.
RUBY
JUBILEE
“We Remember, We Celebrate, We Believe in God’s Transforming Presence
in our Life.” This was how the ten Sisters expressed their innermost
feelings after forty years of faithful journey with God and with His
people during their Ruby Jubilee celebration on January 19, 2008, 9:00
a.m. at La Consolacion Convent, San Juan. |

I should like to express first of all my profound gratitude for all
that has become already a reality and for the slow but steady discovery
of the lay vocation and mission in the Church today .
There are new relationships of genuine
mutuality and autonomy between Religious Congregations and the Laity
today which are invigorating for consecrated life, for the Church and
the world. A Religious Life or Congregation that is sufficient unto
itself is no longer appropriate for these times. This religious life or
Congregation that lives “enclosed” in its proper charism, in its own
tradition, in its works, in its apostolic movements, in its own
associations of laity, in its vocational pastoral activity, in its
internal research – we believe that such religious life is no longer
possible because it would no longer be faithful to its foundational
dynamism that is part of its being: to live in the world, decentred
from itself. |
