April 28,2108: Kolasib Northeast: The first Bethany Lay Associates’ zonal meeting of Mizoram was held on 28 and 29 April 2018 at Madonna Convent, Kolasib and it is the first meeting to be held zone wise in the Province. Forty Bethany Lay Associates participated in the meeting from five units, namely, Bethany Convent Mamit, St Theresa Convent Ngharpet Veng, Bethany Convent Sihphir, Mary Mount Convent Aizawl and Madonna Convent Kolasib. Sr Sandhya, the Pastoral Coordinator of the Province, organized this meeting to bring together the Lay associates of Mizoram region with the help of Sr Therese Zothanpari and Sr Irene Therese in collaboration with Sr Shanthi and Sisters of Madonna Convent and the respective BLA animators.
Mizoram was the first state where Bethany Northeast began her mission in 1962. Mizoram is first in many things for Bethany’s life in Northeast and is also first to host this zonal meet of BLA. The programme was systematically organized with input sessions on the Spirit and Charism of the Congregation, the spirituality and role of Bethany Lay Associates with capturing presentations, group discussions and sharing.
The members enjoyed being together; they were enthused in spirit and expressed their desire to actively involve themselves in collaborating with the Sisters in the mission. They were grateful for organizing this meet. We wish that their renewed spirit leads them forward to be catalysts of faith in their respective parishes.
