Greetings from Oregon! Please keep our novice Nancy in your prayers as she spends part of her apostolic year of novitiate with our Sisters in the Pacific Northwest! 🩵

The apostolic year helps integrate a novice’s prayer, spiritual, and communal life with the various missions of the religious community before she makes her first profession of vows.

Celebrating St. John Vianney, Patron Saint of Parish Priests, today, and asking for his intercession that like Mary, we may be spiritual mothers to and guardians of the priest’s dignity and vocation. May every priest become the sacrifice that offers the Perfect Sacrifice, the love that offers Love.
