Concluded Classes for 8th Adoration Cloistered Monastery, Vellore, TN

It was very satisfying and learning and gaining a lot of experience and information about Franciscan spirituality....it was going back to the basics and also reminding myself about the classes in Antonianum....Rome...where I studied Franciscan Spirituality....
 It was 8th monastery and still I have four to go...but at the moment I am taking time off.....may be I may begin in July.....
 Sisters were full of joy to know something new and contended to review their knowledge about Francis and Clare....
 The Monastery surrounded by Hills....rocky hills so...it is very hot....in Vellore...
 Recreation with Sisters on the last day of the classes....

 Two senior sisters who are 93 each but ever active and participate in everything in the Monastery..
 Young ones are willing to learn something new.....encouraged them to read the books and conduct recollection and give a conference....
 It is not easy to find preachers to give talks every month.....
 Financially not very solid....but the generosity of the benefactors is tremendous....
