Last weekend, teachers, catechists, and parish leaders from across the diocese came together for the annual Religious Educational Congress.
On the 4th of July, we celebrate and give thanks to God for our beautiful country. We have the traditional BBQ, decorate our patio with red, white, and blue, have a water balloon toss, sing patriotic songs around the campfire, and -- for those willing to stay up after grand silence -- watch the local fireworks from the top of our hill. But beyond these joyous and meaningful community traditions, we spend the day in prayer for our country.
On May 31st, feast of the Visitation of Mary, we celebrated the First Profession of Vows of Sr. Mary Michael of the Pierced Heart of Mary. At the profession Mass in the presence of the Bishop and her Sisters, Sister Mary Michael vowed to conform her life to Christ by following His example of poverty, consecrated chastity, and obedience.
The Sisters continue working on their masterpieces for our live auction at our February 8th event: An Evening with the Sisters. Previously, we shared a few pictures of the Sacred Hearts piece. It has really progressed over the last week!
The Sisters are! We are busily preparing absolutely unique pieces of art to share with you.
