After five grace-filled and enriching days away, Sr. Clare has returned home from the Council of Major Superiors of Women Religious formation workshop. She was among 130 women religious from around the United States. What an informative and profound experience it was.

This workshop was not only a gift for learning how to better form and accompany our younger religious sisters, but it was also a gift for our own ongoing growth and renewal. Formation is never only for the young; it is a lifelong journey of listening, learning, and being transformed by God’s grace.

We are grateful for the wisdom shared, the connections made, and the renewed inspiration brought back home. Please keep all religious communities in your prayers as we continue the beautiful mission of forming hearts for Christ and serving His people with joy. 🙏✨

Stay tuned for more information about our vocation discernment retreat! We are so coming back, now that Sr. Clare is nearly done with her educational career 😉

Happy Easter ✚🤍

World Day of Consecrated Life
“Consecrated Persons: Prophetic Witnesses of Peace in a Wounded World.”

Today, we give thanks to God for the beautiful gift of consecrated life a life rooted in prayer, poured out in service, and offered as a prophetic sign of hope, healing, and peace in our wounded world.

With hearts full of gratitude, we also celebrate 80 years of our presence in the United States. For eight decades, God has faithfully walked with us as we served, loved, and accompanied His people with courage and compassion.

We are especially blessed to still have with us Sr. Olga, one of the fifteen pioneer sisters whose “yes” laid the foundation for the mission we continue today. Her life remains a living testimony of faithfulness, perseverance, and prophetic witness.

We thank God for all consecrated men and women who, through their vows, remind the world that love is possible, peace can be built, and hope still rises one faithful act at a time.

Lord, continue to bless all those who have given their lives entirely to You.
