Sunday in Makulani, visiting and sharing

Today after Mass, we visited the novitiate house in Makulani, about a 30-minute drive from Masasi. The Sisters from the Congo, a candidate, and the two novices who are in our class came too. There are 7 novices living there now. We had a great visit, a wonderful meal, and a tour of their farm and gardens. The pictures show their exemplary use of newer approaches to make their life better. The pictures, themselves, tell the story.
