This occasion saw the celebration of five new Associates and the welcoming back of 18 returning Associates, all of whom dedicated themselves to following in the footsteps of Mother Catherine and Bishop David, guided by the radiant wisdom of St. Vincent de Paul.

Additionally, the Sisters renewed their sacred vows during this meaningful event. The day commenced with an enlightening discussion about the Eucharist, followed by moments of adoration, confession, and culminating in a Mass.

The festivities concluded as everyone shared a delicious meal together.
