SR. VILMA TALLONE VISITS MARY OUR HELP PROVINCE (CMY)
The
much-awaited visit of Sr. Vilma Tallone, General Administrator of the
Institute, to Cambodia – Myanmar Province came into reality from April 5 – 16.
Days before the celebration of Khmer New Year in Cambodia, she was warmly
welcomed in the different
FMA
schools in Phnom Penh and Battambang where she had a glimpse of the Cambodian
culture through their presentation.
In
Myanmar, caught in the midst of the Annual Thingyan Festival commonly called the
Water Festival, Sr. Vilma took time to visit the 5 communities in Yangon as
well as in Mandalay Division.
Sr.
Vilma’s visit in both countries culminated with an encounter with the Sisters
challenging each one to live the vow of poverty as a choice in freedom.
Moreover, she also encouraged them to live it with greater sense of
responsibility.
Her
visit, though brief, left significant indications and orientations which are of
help in the journey of the Province.
