DESCRIPTION:COVID 19 A BOON OR DOOM FOR THE WORLD? \nThe Covid 19 whatsoever its origin and reason\, human kind has come to a halt from it all time busyness. It is not only swallowing the human life but also incredibly pushing the humanity to an uncertain and multifarious future with potentially profound and long term impacts on global life and economy.  Now is the time to separate fact from fiction\, subjective from objective. \nOrganisations are going to be faced with tough choices regarding how to successfully steer their day today activities amid challenges\, as well as an explosion of conflicting information and views on how to potentially do their business. \nReligious institutions too are not far from this situation that demand them find alternatives to be\, Sisters Adorers of Kolkata Province had very many plans and programmes chalked out\, but CORONA the pandemic appeared as “thunder in the blue”. We remained along with our world around a standstill\, forced to quarantine ourselves from all our personal and social services. During this cessation\, we remained inside of our closed doors. Perhaps during this quarantine – afraid of an atom size virus – that infected 7 million people all over the world gave opportunities for the Mother earth and the nature to cure and recover themselves from the human atrocities meted out to them through our irresponsible\, thoughtless and acquisitive behaviours. \nThere is no more noise and air pollution through loud speakers\, smokes emitting from vehicles\, factories etc. Wild life and birds started to enjoy their life freely moving and singing outside of their hide outs. Streets remained empty\, eateries became vacant\, factories stopped\, and business collapsed\, so also worship places. \nWe Sisters Adorers  life too was not different from the public. For us prayer became intensive\, food became tasty\, medicine became scanty\, less time for grumbling but more time for reflection and prayer.  Community became full\, chapel became the most often visited place thus Our Lord had the company of His Adorers always in this pandemic – quarantine. It has taught us to live with minimum\, contented with fewer. We learn to listen and appreciate the Creator God through long time meditation and prayer. It also taught us to listened to nature and enjoy it in the silence of the world. However for us it was a time for introspection – how do I live and lived my life as a committed person? Do I find the need to be closer to the Father God\, our creator? Just like an overused cell that is to be recharged. As if He says to us that “He” knows if not recharged enough\, the battery of the world would explode and the whole creation would blow off. There was ample space and time to be with the Lord to be grateful for His intervention in our life. \nMajority of us had to be contented with on line Eucharistic celebrations and of course to be faithful to other religious practices without fail\, but with more fervour\, and knowing the value of missing something very much dear. Contacting regularly through media of social communication the women and staff at our centres and occasionally by our physical presence. \n  \nIt was a never ending wait to see the end of Corona\, but in vain .While all the institutions Gov. and non-Governmental institutions planned work on line\, we too planned to hold meetings and working on lines. As the time passed we understood the need to live our life with the deadly virus. Here our prayer life seems to be more realistic\, trusting and abandoning ourselves in to hands of our Abba Father who knows what is best for us. We felt the urge to reach out to the needy specially the women of our mission\, collecting and reaching them what is necessary for their survival. \n \n  \nFor us Adorers in Kolkata province though outwardly we remained quartenine\, inwardly we were with our recipients and our needy world around\, seeking help from others and reaching out to them visibly. As the lockdown eased in all our houses sisters were not only praying for the world but also reaching out to the needy with our widow’s mite. \nTo be true\, it’s heartening to see the haves¨ has reached to the have not. People are becoming more and more altruistic\, some people are poor but so rich by heart.  This pandemic Covid 19 will make us globally one by chiselling off our selfishness.  It’s so ironic that “it takes sadness to know what happiness is\, noise to appreciate silence and absence to value presence¨. Sought of to say that\, Covid 19 brought so much loss in human life and resources. It has left us with lots of anxiety\, fear and uncertainty of the future. But then\, it helped us to become more altruistic\, brought to the Mother Earth and the nature\, relaxation from their overuse due to human greed.   \nLet us hopefully wait for Gods time that the Corona Virus may leave the world for ever and bring back a more just  and harmonious society where all of us humans\, animals and the plant life find its place in this universes which is the common home for all. \n              Sr Lissiamma Joseph AASC \n                        Liluah URL:https://adorerskolkataprovince.org/events/covid-19-a-boon-or-doom-for-the-world/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20200814T080000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20200814T170000 DTSTAMP:20260613T212431 CREATED:20200814T195317Z LAST-MODIFIED:20200814T195317Z UID:1069-1597392000-1597424400@adorerskolkataprovince.org SUMMARY:Our life amidst Novel Corona virus and induced lockdown in Nepal DESCRIPTION: URL:https://adorerskolkataprovince.org/events/our-life-amidst-novel-corona-virus-and-induced-lockdown-in-nepal/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20200817T080000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20200817T170000 DTSTAMP:20260613T212431 CREATED:20200825T171327Z LAST-MODIFIED:20201115T183009Z UID:1075-1597651200-1597683600@adorerskolkataprovince.org SUMMARY:SISTERS ADORERS KOLKATA PROVINCE MOURNS THE DEATH OF SR CARIDAD PARAMUNDAYIL DESCRIPTION: URL:https://adorerskolkataprovince.org/events/sisters-adorers-kolkata-province-mourns-the-death-of-sr-caridad-paramundayil/ LOCATION:Christopher Road Kolkata\, Kolkata\, India END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210109 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210110 DTSTAMP:20260613T212431 CREATED:20210116T164549Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210116T172559Z UID:1089-1610150400-1610236799@adorerskolkataprovince.org SUMMARY:The joy of committing myself to the Lord in the Congregation of Sisters Adorers\, Kolkata province 9 January 2021 DESCRIPTION:“My soul magnifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.” [Lk.1:46-47] \nAlong with Mary our most loving Mother I too proclaim the joy of having said ‘Yes’ to the Lord by committing my life entirely for Him. My first profession was held on 9 January in Puri Sisters Adorers convent chapel with all its solemnity. The pandemic couldn’t block to accomplish the plan of God so beautifully. \nThe Motto I have taken is “CALLED TO BE BROKEN AND SHRED” which gives much meaning to my call. I am called to be broken\, giving up my total self for the salvific mission of Christ\, through the Charism of our congregation Adoration –Liberation. \nI was fortunate to make my first profession in Puri which is the cradle of Sisters Adorers presence in India. Rev. Archbishop John Barwa SVD was the main celebrant of the Holy Eucharist. Like a bride I was led in procession with lighted and decorated candle to the chapel along with my parents\, sisters and the concelebrants. This crucial part of the ceremony was when I committed myself to the Lord to do His will by living the vows of Chastity\, Poverty and Obedience in my life. Each and every moments of the celebration was very graceful\, significant and meaningful. In his homily\, Archbishop John Barwa highlighted the unconditional “Yes” of Mother Mary.  Like Mary\, I too have said Yes to His Holy will\,   trusting fully that He will journey along with me all through my committed life.  The beautiful choir led by Sr Bindu and other sister’s added meaning to the celebration and helped me to express the joy of my consecration. \nGratitude wells up my heart as I remember my formators and Sisters\, who travelled along with me and prepared me during my vocational journey to reach this stage of my life. A special word of thanks to my sisters of Puri community for making this celebration and this day a very memorable and significant one for me .

It is an occasion for renewal and growth in fraternal communion. It is also a time for making plans\, setting goals\, electing office bearers and taking care of ministry. It is a time to thank God for all the blessings of the past years and seeking Gods continues graces for the coming years. \nThe Provincial Chapter customarily opens with the celebration of the Holy Eucharist in which all the members of the Chapter participate. \nIn preparation of this event four of our Communities celebrated the votive Mass of the Holy Spirit on February 24\, 2021 and others on February 25\, 2021. \nAll Communities except three of our communities made recollection on the theme “TOGETHER ON THE WAY” preached by Deccan Ivan Fernandez.  In his video sharing he said that “Yes\, together on the way we are set to Adore\, Walk and Accompany. Allowing ourselves to be transformed\, living in Hope and welcoming the reality to live the Mission of Adoration and Liberation. It is a Kairos Moment/ an opportune time. Walking alone is a desert experience\, whereas when we walk with the significant other we know where we are heading to. \nDeacon Ivan continued saying that\, Jesus met the Samaritan woman at the well\, He took a walk with her\, accompanied her and finally she was enlightened to adore the true Living God in Spirit and Truth. Jesus set her free from the burden of her sinful past.  Jesus took the challenge of breaking the structure to set free the bonded.   \nAnd the question to ask is Can we walk\, accompany others who are broken\, bruised and wounded? Can we lead the trampled down by human-trafficking?  Can we lead to the Divine\, living water\, to discover their image\, their dignity?” \nWhen the day was ended\, special prayers were offered for all the participants of the Provincial Chapter\, entrusting them into the hands of our Holy Mother Foundress asking Mary our Mother to intercede for each of them. \nGreetings and Best wishes from….. \nMay the Spirit of the Lord guide you throughout this Provincial Chapter.

Because on November 14\, 1947 our pioneers of the Indian foundation of Sisters Adorers Mother Antonia Mene\, Sr Jovita Fernandez Gabanes\, Sr Maria Luz Martinez Caballero and Sr Adelaida Romero Amillano\, from Spain landed in India\, we humbly thank the gift of each one of them who toiled to place a tabernacle for the Lord among our Hindu brethren.                                                                \nAs we enter in to the 75th year of our presence in India\, the Indian provinces gratefully acknowledge the Lord’s Mighty Hands that led our Pioneer Sisters who journeyed through thick and thin of life with determined spirit and   courage.  May their noble souls rest in peace.           Our Pioneer sisters \nThe tiny seed which they planted in Puri\, Orissa has today grown in to a huge tree that spread out in India and its neighbouring countries. Owing to distance and easy administrative purpose the Province of India bifurcated in to two Provinces in the year 2000 as Province of Kolkata and Mumbai. Today they have 14 and 13 houses respectively with their presence in one foreign country each – Nepal and Philippines \nLike Micaela\, we believe that “liberation is possible”. Embracing their human frailty and encouraging their process of self-discovery that leads to healing\, inner freedom\, personal growth and wholeness\, we advocate the promotion and social re-integration of women and girls\, exploited by prostitution and various forms of social evils. \n  \nIn this 75th year of the presence of the Congregation in the Indian soil\, both provinces are getting ready to celebrate it meaningfully. The Kolkata province is already in it by organising chain adorations for the entire year by all our houses\, online monthly recollections in turn by each house\, reading and reflecting on Congregational documents\, praying rosaries at the same time by the whole province with particular intentions and making use of the modern media for the propagation of the Charism etc. We pray that as we celebrate the platinum jubilee may the Lord of the harvest bless our Congregation with more genuine vocations\, thus Micaela can continue living through Adores who are yet to come. \nHereby we invite the entire Congregation to join with us to thank the Lord for his steadfast love and mercy especially towards the Indian provinces for the past 75 years.  \n \nPuri – The first community of Adorer in India URL:https://adorerskolkataprovince.org/events/adorers-presence-in-india-platinum-jubilee/ CATEGORIES:Kolkata province END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230501 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230521 DTSTAMP:20260613T212431 CREATED:20230529T184825Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230529T184825Z UID:1222-1682899200-1684627199@adorerskolkataprovince.org SUMMARY:Inter- Province juniors gathering at Nalgonda 1-20th May 2023 DESCRIPTION:View FullscreenSkip to PDF content URL:https://adorerskolkataprovince.org/events/inter-province-juniors-gathering-at-nalgonda-1-20th-may-2023/ LOCATION:Nalgonda CATEGORIES:Kolkata province END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20230609T080000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Kolkata:20230611T170000 DTSTAMP:20260613T212431 CREATED:20230711T190832Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230711T190843Z UID:1227-1686297600-1686502800@adorerskolkataprovince.org SUMMARY:Provincial Conference DESCRIPTION:View FullscreenSkip to PDF content URL:https://adorerskolkataprovince.org/events/provincial-conference/ LOCATION:Christopher Road Kolkata\, Kolkata\, India CATEGORIES:Kolkata province END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230614 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230615 DTSTAMP:20260613T212431 CREATED:20230711T191016Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230711T191016Z UID:1230-1686700800-1686787199@adorerskolkataprovince.org SUMMARY:Final Profession & Golden Jubilee DESCRIPTION:View FullscreenSkip to PDF content URL:https://adorerskolkataprovince.org/events/final-profession-golden-jubilee/ LOCATION:Auxilium Parish CATEGORIES:Kolkata province END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230615 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230616 DTSTAMP:20260613T212431 CREATED:20230711T191153Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230816T205918Z UID:1234-1686787200-1686873599@adorerskolkataprovince.org SUMMARY:Feast of St. Maria Micaela DESCRIPTION:View FullscreenSkip to PDF content URL:https://adorerskolkataprovince.org/events/feast-of-st-maria-micaela-2/ LOCATION:Christopher Road Kolkata\, Kolkata\, India CATEGORIES:Kolkata province END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20230801 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20230809 DTSTAMP:20260613T212431 CREATED:20230816T205742Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230816T205742Z UID:1238-1690848000-1691539199@adorerskolkataprovince.org SUMMARY:Annual retreat DESCRIPTION:View FullscreenSkip to PDF content URL:https://adorerskolkataprovince.org/events/annual-retreat/ LOCATION:Kolkata\, Provincial house\, Provincial house\, Kolkata\, India CATEGORIES:Kolkata province END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
