KARIBUNI SANA!
One of the milestones in the history of the East African Province is the beginning of our mission in southern Sudan, Nuba Mountains, in 2005. At the present time, there are three CPS Sisters who joyfully and courageously serve the marginalized people of Kauda in the fields of health care, education and pastoral ministry.
We are invited to follow
Christ more closely.
In His humanity, Jesus
was tempted but did not give in.
The devil presented every
possible option to make
He succumbed, yet He remained
steadfast and faithful
to the Father. This reminds us
that we are not called to
rely on ourselves or to
gratify our own abilities.
Instead, we are invited to
trust in God’s constant
help and His faithful
presence, especially in
moments of temptation.
Lent provides us with a perfect opportunity to
“begin again” in our lives as religious women.
Our lives as CPS are rooted in the
continual flow of life, death and resurrection
– the continual dying
and rising with Jesus –
in our own lives and in the lives of those
to whom we minister and meet daily.
But before we can be women of reconciliation
for those to whom we minister and encounter,
we must first be women of reconciliation
among ourselves.
“If no one goes, I go!”
These courageous words of our Founder,
continue to echo in our hearts today.
They remind us that our vocation as
Missionary Sisters of the Precious Blood
is rooted in availability, sacrifice and love
without limit.
In this lent season, we are invited to
renew our personal response to Christ,
to go where we are needed,
to serve even in difficulty and
to offer ourselves more
deeply to God’s service.
lent is our time to say again,
with faith and courage…
Lord, I go!
