Most Reverend Mother,
Dearest Sisters,
May the Lord grant you His peace.

With this letter, we first want to extend our greetings and express our gratitude for your great gift, which you sent us in April to support us in our project of building the enclosure wall around the buildings of our Monastery.

This gift from your immense generosity has been very useful to us because a significant part of the construction has been completed—especially on the side where thieves used to frequently enter to steal from the garden we cultivate.

Now, we feel a greater sense of security and tranquility in our agricultural work, as well as for ourselves. However, there is still a section left to be built, and for that, we continue to extend our hands to Divine Providence, hoping that one day this, too, will be completed.

In recent months, we have noticed an increase in the number of faithful coming to pray in our chapel, staying for longer periods. Some have shared their experiences with us, saying that in this place where we live, they feel a great sense of peace, fulfilling their deep desire for rest and prayer.

We give thanks to the Lord for this, for He alone accomplishes wonders for His children. We also see this as one of the fruits of the grace brought by the construction of this enclosure wall.

We would also like to inform you that during this month dedicated to the souls in purgatory, we have arranged for Holy Masses to be celebrated, including five special Masses for the deceased members of your beloved congregation.

With deep recognition in our hearts, you are more than just Sisters in Spirit to us—through the bond of charity and communion in prayer, as we continue to follow Christ together. We feel your closeness and assure you of our own.

Thank you immensely.

We will continue to pray that the Lord may place in the hearts of young people the desire to follow Him in your congregation and to serve Him wholeheartedly.

As for our own community, it is also growing. This summer, we welcomed three young women who had been journeying with us for some time and now wish to become nuns of St. Clare of Assisi.

In all things and through everything, we always rely on the Lord’s grace and His providence.

Please never forget us among the poor of the Lord. Thank you.

With gratitude, recognition, and filial love in Jesus and Mary,

Sister Maria Regina IBYISHAKA, OSC
(on behalf of all the Sisters)
