Today is bittersweet as one general council ends and another begins. We are blessed to be a community full of strong leaders who practice love, mercy and justice. Our community is anchored by the legacy of Saint Mother Theodore Guerin and the timeless wisdom of God's Providence. We thank Sisters Dawn Tomaszewski, Laura Parker, Carole Kimes, Anne Therese Falkenstein, and Jeanne Hagelskamp for their faithful service over the last five years. To be led by their example and guidance is such a gift, and they join the ranks of the exemplary women who led before them.
We celebrated a special Installation Eucharistic Liturgy this afternoon, which marked the transition of the congregation from one council to the next. Sister Jeanne Hagelskamp was blessed as our new General Superior, as well as our councilors for the next five years: Vicar Sister Lisa Stallings, Sister Anne Therese Falkenstein, Sister Norene Wu and Sister Tracey Horan. A special blessing was also placed on Sisters Dawn, Laura and Carole as they embark on the next chapters of their lives. We hope you will help us hold them all in prayer. đź’—
