First Profession of Vows

In Mary's Magnificat, she says, My soul magnifies the Lord...(Lk. 1:46). Mary the perfect model for a Religious consecrated to Christ, shows how in everything she did she gave glory to Christ. So too when a Religious professes her vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience, she is espoused to Christ of who radiates through her.

On April 8th, 2006, Sr. Maria del Divino Amore made her First Profession of Vows at St. James Catholic Church in Mount Rainer, MD. The Mass was celebrated by Fr. Gustavo Nieto, IVE Provincial Superior. A reception followed immediately after the Mass, a gathering of friends and family.
