We feel great joy and immense gratitude to God who gifted us with vocation to religious life, to the universal Church and the Presentation family who welcomed us with a fraternal embrace, and our parents with our dear and near ones who participated spiritually from Vietnam. Thank you to all who prayed for us, supported us and helped us to reach to the altar and say “Yes” to the Lord.
