The sisters of the two Communities-Taller (Loreto Hostel and Korobosea) in Papua New Guinea had the renewal of their vows in the morning during the 9:00 o’clock Mass at the Mary Help of Christians Shrine of the Don Bosco-East Boroko. Since many people, including Filipino families, go there for Mass the sisters decided to have the renewal there so that our Congregation-Siervas de San Jose may be known more and more.
