CHICALIM CARMEL: ANOTHER FLOWER BLOOMS!

Sr Santana of the Sacred Heart, made her Solemn Profession on 8th of June, 2018, the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. She had first joined the Franciscan Missionaries of Christ the King (FMCK) in the year 2000. After 14 years, hearing the Lord's call for a more Contemplative and hidden life, she entered Carmel in 2014.

Her family members and the a few companions from the FMCK congregation participated in the solemn liturgical celebration.

Fr. Joe Tauro OCD, former Provincial of the Karnataka-Goa Province presided over the Eucharist. Carmelite Friars from the communities in Goa and a few others from elsewhere concelebrated. The Episcopal Vicar for Religious, Parish Priest of Chicalim and the Parish Priest of Pomburpa (home parish of Sr Santana) also graced the occasion.

We wish Sr Santana all happiness in the garden of Carmel.
