The Superior General, Antonia Munuera, has appointed Sister Carmen Villalon as the new Superior of the Delegation of Asia. Throughout the day the sisters of the Delegation have been sending messages of congratulations and encouragement to Sister Carmen wishing that the Lord will strengthen her with his Spirit to undertake this new service. In the words of Sister Clara Shin, former Superior of the Delegation, we can summarize the feelings of the sisters of the Delegation of Asia welcoming with joy the new appointment: "Today I remember especially the -Fiat- of the Virgin Mary thinking that also your -yes- will come after many prayers and reflection and a deep availability. God calls you to realize His will, so we all together share with you this joy".

The sisters did not forget to send messages of thanks to Sister Clara Shin for all the enthusiasm with which she has served the Delegation during the past six years. For her dedication and closeness to the sisters. In the messages they all expressed their gratitude and their wish that the Lord will continue to bless her and accompany her in her new assignment, whatever it may be. With the two sisters we feel gratitude and joy.

The Delegation is also grateful for the generous service of Sister Pilar Garcia, former Provincial Superior of the Province of Europe and shares the joy of the other Provinces and Vice Province for the new sisters appointed to this service. May the Lord bless and comfort them all.
