On Monday, 27 July 2026, the Sisters of St. Ann Cameroon Delegation joyfully celebrated the First Profession of two novices – Charlette and Praxedis,vat the Novitiate House, Bayelle-Bamenda.
The Eucharistic celebration was presided over by Fr. Innocent, Regional Superior of the Mill Hill Fathers, in the presence of the Sisters of St. Ann, neighboring religious communities, a few members of the Lay Associates of St. Ann (LASA), and the families of the newly professed sisters. The liturgy was beautifully animated by the novices and some sisters.
During the celebration, the sisters professed their first vows, which were received by Sr. Carine Bagatsin, Delegate of the Superior General.
In his homily, Fr. Innocent encouraged the newly professed sisters to remain faithful to their vocation, reminding them that their choice to embrace religious life is a noble one and that their call comes from God. He urged them to trust in the Lord always and to persevere faithfully in their commitment.
A significant moment of the celebration was the reception of the religious habit and the Constitutions of the Congregation, visible signs of the vows they had professed and their commitment to live according to the charism and mission of the Sisters of St. Ann.
The Sisters of St. Ann Cameroon Delegation give thanks to God for the gift of these newly professed sisters and pray that He may continue to strengthen and guide them as they faithfully serve Him and His people.
