On July 5, 2026, at 10:00 a.m., the Parish of Toussaint in Bonoua celebrated the First Religious Profession of Sisters SABI Bougnon Dèré Jeannette and KOUASSI Kossia Eugénie, who consecrated themselves to the Lord and began a new stage of their lives in our Congregation.
The Eucharistic celebration was presided over by Reverend Father Arsène Venance ASSEMAN and brought together family members, sisters of the Congregation, friends, and members of the local community, who joyfully accompanied them on this moment of profound grace and vocational commitment.
The ceremony, celebrated with great solemnity and emotion, marked a significant milestone in the lives of these two young sisters, who generously responded to God’s call to follow Christ in the consecrated life. Filled with deep gratitude, they expressed their joy for the wonderful things the Lord has accomplished in their lives and for the infinite love with which He has accompanied them on this journey.
As a sign of their belonging to our Congregation, the sisters received the religious habit on the day before their profession. During the celebration, they were also presented with the veil, the cross, and the Constitutions, symbols of the mission and commitment they now embrace in the service of God and the Church.
We give thanks to God for the gift of these newly professed sisters, a blessing for the Church and for our Congregation. With great joy, we warmly welcome them into our family and entrust their fidelity and perseverance to the Lord, that He may continue to guide their steps along the path of preaching and service.
