The 41 sisters of Mangalore Province gathered for the provincial Assembly on 6th February 2020 at Vamanjoor. The members were cordially welcomed. Sr Cicilia Mendonca the Provincial superior in her key note address highlighted one aspect of the consecrated life that is “Community life”. The "community" is a crucial place in life, where life grows and can be fulfilled, because it is a place in which every person learns to receive love and to give love, ways to witness Christ, four pillars of community, Community in our times, and need for renewal. The resource person of the day Rev Fr Alvito OCD highlighted the aspect of personal intimacy with the Lord and to become proclaimers of the word of God. Consecrated life is more of being with the lord and communion with one another. We are set apart to be holy and have sanctification of consecration.
A days outing to St Antony’s Shrine Kerekatte enriched and renewed the spirit of the sisters.
On 9th silver and golden jubilee was celebrated. Golden jubilaroins Srs Carmencita, Acquilla, Richard, Cordelia, Fidelis, Mariebelle, Glorina, Nympha Jubilarians
and Silver jubilarians Srs Cicilia D’Souza, and Flossy Menezes were felicitated. 
During the Eucharist Rev Fr Maxim Noronha the Vicar General preached a befitting homily inviting the Jubilarians to focus on the four elements that are required mainly remembering the past, repenting, renewing and rejoicing and to be the salt of the earth and light of the world. The jubilarians were recognized and greeted and thanked for their selfless services to the humanity, to the Congregation and were wished success in the ministry.
