In his homily, Monsignor, emphasized the sense that it has the feast of Pentecost in the Church, in the light of the biblical readings of the liturgy and the reality that lived the parish with the beginning of our missionary presence, responding to a sending, as the one, the apostles of Jesus received the day of Pentecost. After the celebration of the Eucharist, we went to the House to be blessed by the Bishop, beginning with the Chapel. In the square, people gather with their authorities were waiting for us to begin the welcome, organized with much love and dedication. All the people present there, more than a thousand, had received a glass of soda and a large sandwich, prepared and offered by the pastoral council with its committees. And not only that, they also had lunch ready, which we share with the different civil authorities, the Catechists of the town and some rural communities.

All  we lived in this day, not only remain in the archives, but even more in the hearts of those who with such enthusiasm and affection participated in this holiday and especially in the memory of the four founding sisters, as a stimulus to bring the proclamation of the Gospel.
