The joy of committing myself to the Lord in the Congregation of Sisters Adorers, Kolkata province 9 January 2021
2021-01-09 | Puri Chapel
“My soul magnifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior.” [Lk.1:46-47]
Along 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.
The 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.
I 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.
Gratitude 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 . Thank You Lord, Thank you dear sisters.

XII Provincial Chapter –Virtual of Kolkata Province
February 25 -28, 2021
We are at the threshold of celebrating the XII Provincial Chapter – virtual, of our Province.The Provincial Chapter is a significant event in the life of the province. 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.
The Provincial Chapter customarily opens with the celebration of the Holy Eucharist in which all the members of the Chapter participate.
In 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.
All 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.
Deacon 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.
And 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?”
When 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.
Greetings and Best wishes from…..

Adorer’s presence in India - Platinum Jubilee
2021-11-21
As our Congregation celebrates the 165th year of its foundation, we the Indian provinces have a twin reasons to thank the Lord for His continuous graces and blessings. 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.
As 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
The 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
Like 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.

In 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.
Hereby 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.
