(Manila) — On 3 May, Sr Victoria Dos Santos, of the Province of St Joseph, Timor-Leste, renewed her vows during the 6:30 a.m. Mass at the Hiyas Community in San Juan, Manila, presided over by Fr Allan Ferdinand Dizon, FdCC. The celebration was preceded by a day of recollection the day before, experienced as spiritual preparation for this moment of consecration.

In a spirit of gratitude and renewed commitment, her vows were accepted by the Provincial Leader of the Sacred Heart Province (Philippines–PNG), Sr Estrella Vasquez, and witnessed by Sr Maria Louella Olarte and Sr Maria Elena Adre. Sr Victoria, who is currently studying in the Philippines, continues her journey of consecrated life with faith and generosity.

May this sacred moment become an even deeper “yes” to God’s call, a quiet yet heartfelt offering of her life in love and service.
