special day at the Madre Maria Rosa Social Center

October 6th is a special day at CSMMR, as it is the feast day of Mother Maria Rosa, founder of the Congregation of the Sisters of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary.

This year, the children and teenagers watched a presentation about Sister Maria Rosa's life, colored roses, and wrote messages to her.

What most impressed the children and teenagers about her story was her affection for people in socially vulnerable situations and her struggle to provide them with a good education.

The children also presented a play about her life and sang happy birthday to Sister Maria Rosa and two other people who had birthdays that month. The afternoon ended with a delicious chocolate cake with strawberry ice cream!
