OCDS Subic 2nd Monthly Meeting for the Month of January

We always start our daily activity by praying the Liturgy of the Hours as a community...

 
... and every 4th Sunday of the month, we dedicate some of our meeting time to pray for our Priest in front of the Most Blessed Sacrament.  This Custom has been around with the OCDS Subic community and has been revised from time to time, to suit our Carmelite Secular identity.



After praying for our Priests, we continue on with our regular formation schedule.



For this meeting however, we were blessed to have a visitor who have intended her intentions to join the community.



We hope that she will continue attending our meetings as we hope for her to join our regular formation program soon.

First OCDS-Subic Regular Monthly Meeting Held

        The St. Teresa of Jesus and John  of the Cross Community held its first Regular Monthly Meeting for CY 2013, last January 13, 2013.

      The newly elected council members, through its newly elected President, Elsa R. Pineda, OCDS, have informed the community of its recently held consultation meetings, with the community Treasurer giving her yearly report to the community.  

      Asside from this, the community was also informed of the Councils decision for a postulation of Sis.  Carolina Ensico, OCDS, so that she can continue to be the Community's Director of Formation, in the absence of able / capable replacement, since most of the Definitive Promise members are either sick or have reached the age of seniority.

        Regular formation was conducted after the meeting with the Council which was followed by a visitation to Sor Mary Renee Josol, OCD, who was celebrating her 47th Perpetual profession.
