ARU A BLESSING TO US ALL; Poem by Sr. Maria Teddy Nakirunda, LSOSF

In Uganda’s heart where faith thrives,

A course for the juniors in consecrated life,

By Association of the Religious guided with care,

Topics of growth in Community we share.

Personal, commitment a faith we traced,

Community living in love’s gentle space,

Canon law’s wisdom, a framework so clear,

Mental health’s balance, wellbeing’s cheer.

Synod on Synodality, a journey we took,

Dialogue and collaboration in faith’s hook,

Beneficial lessons for me and for all

In this course’s embrace, our hearts stood tall.

Gratitude to ARU we say,

For this course’s gift, on our journey,

Growth in faith, in community, bonds we find’

Blessings of the course, in hearts intertwined.

With knowledge gained, our faith aligned,

In consecrated life, our hearts do shine,

Unity in purpose, in love we bind,

Together walking in, faith’s pathways.

Through challenges faced, and lessons learned

In community living, our spirits dwell

In Synodality’s spirit, we reside

In faith’s journey, our hearts abide.

In the Church’s landscape, our faith so bright,

The course’s impact, the beacon of light,

Guiding us forward, in service and prayer,

In consecrated life, our hearts declare.

In prayer and service, our lives weave

A call to consecrated life, in love we believe

With ARU’s guidance, we grow in the Lord

Grounded in community, our hearts accord.

With hearts united, in purpose we stand

In the church, our hearts intertwined

This course’s blessings, in us remain

Consecrate life’s journey, love refrain.
