Dom says: In the evening of Wednesday, June 11th, at the Chapter, with the Sisters present, Brother Marcus Santiago and Brother Anton Vo renewed their simple vows, beginning their third year of simple vows.
Then all went for a party in the refectory. There was a lot of entertainment at the party. Four sisters and five brothers sang a song about freedom, which was very well done.
Then the Sisters put on hats and sang a song to say "good-bye" to us.
The Filipino brothers (Dom Caedmon, Dom Lawrence-that's me!, and Dom Marcus) sang a song popularized by Raymond Lauchengco, saying "good-bye" to the Sisters!
Brother Caedmon sang "The warrior is a child" for the first time in 2 years—and it was wonderful. Brother Anton sang a song with his own guitar accompaniment. Abbot Philip sang "How Great Thou Art."
Sister Elizabeth had music and did a 'Tai Chi' performance with it. Father Romualdo sang a short Korean song and did a dance with it.
At the end, Brother John Dat did a skit with Brother Dominic Dat and Brother John Baptist about cutting hair which elicited a loud laughter from the congregation. It was wonderful and really had us all laughing.
