    What a great blessing for Sisters of Charity to witness so many young Sisters being professed at Angelore Sisters of Charity Convent. How I wish I was there to attend the Solemn occasion, because I distinctly remember my sister Jane being professed at the same place sixty years ago.She became Sister Joan thereafter. We walked  bare-footed from our home in Kankanady to Angelore for a grand occasion. My father who was suffering from Asthama had to ask for a cup of coffee from the nuns after the long ceremony. We still have a lovely picture taken by a freelance photographer (no one had any camera those days) prominently hanging on the wall at our humble home in Jeppoo that was taken with Sister Jane and our parents who were so young then. Those were the days to remember. Those were the days to rejoice and reflect upon !! Because of Sister Jane we were able to visit so many Convents at Kankanady Hospital, Jeppoo, Sakhlaspur, Hassan, Secunderabad, Hyderabad, Bhadrachellum Road, Goa and Bombay. We celebrated Sr.Joan's 50 years of Religious life at Prabha Devi in Bombay ten years ago, and she died within a month thereafter. The prayers of Sisters of Charity have blended deeply and solidly within the simple fabric of our family. God bless the Sisters of Charity. One of these days I would like to visit Angelore Convent and pay my respects to the beloved nuns.
