    Dear Sr. Rose Celine as I congratulate you as Superior General and Lillis, Shanti Priya, Mariette and Lilitta as your team members I entrust you all to the care of the Lord that He may guide you, protect you to discern His plans and help the sisters towards God-realization so that they are effective in their mission to the society.
    I am happy to have studied with the sisters, trained by the former Generals, Mother Macrina, Mother Gemma, Sr. Agnella, Sr. Sylvine, Novice Mistress Sr. Esperie, Sr. Misericors, Superiors, Sr. Esuria for the unconditional love with which everyone led me towards what I am today. The foundation from my parents then teachers and the congregation can never be forgotten. I pray that all of you may carry forward the vision and mission of the Founder whom I have seen in Taccode when I was very small. The picture of him entering the Taccode old convent is very fresh in my memory.
    With love and assurance of Prayers. Mariella

    As per rules, there is election every six years for Mother Superior. One can have maximum 2 terms (12 Years) Predecessor of Sr. Wilberta, Sr. Jyoti was Mother Superior for 2 terms.
    There is no higher post. They will serve in any capacity since they have a vow of obedience. Sr Jyoti is now a Provincial.

    Congratulations to Sr. Rose Celine on her new assignment as Superior General of Bethany. Also nice to know that she has four Distinguished Councillors to assist her from now on.

    Where is Sr. Wilberta going from now? Is there any position above the Superior General? Sr. Wilberta has done a wonderful job and we thank her for all her worthy services.

    Bethany nuns and their Education that they rendered to me for three years from the year 1944 to 1947 is still well remembered and gratefully recollected. My foundation of Education I attribute to the Bethany Nuns, under the leadership of Sr.Lazarus who nurtured me and guided me that i wholeheartedly recollect and whisper a prayer of gratitude.

    Bethany nuns have blossomed well in Mangalore under the command of Monsgr. Monscarenhas. The Bethany nuns have placed tremendous trust in Monsgr. Mascarenhas, and the monument that they have created at their Convent at Bendore is extremely precious and hopefully the Bethany nuns will be blessed with their desires.
