Dear Sisters and Associates,
We are pleased to announce this year’s series of virtual assembly meetings, themed “St. Joseph, Our Companion on the Journey.” In these uncertain times, we look to our patron, St. Joseph, who walked his journey with courage and love. We pray he is with us during these days as we look back on where we have been and begin to shape our journey forward.
The goal of the assembly is to “be connected and accountable." You will have the opportunity to hear updates on the province from a variety of presenters as well as to listen to one another. This entire process is designed as a dialogue, and we will be inviting your feedback throughout the sessions in a variety of ways (email, polls and surveys).
The days planned by our Sister Agenda Committee (formerly the Governance Communal Discernment Committee) and the Mission Agenda Committee will help to inspire us, enlighten us and broaden our horizons. Both groups have planned engaging sessions designed to move us into the future in alignment with our province chapter directives and congregational Acts of Chapter.
We invite you to take a look through the session agendas and prepare your minds and hearts for this step on our journey. St. Joseph, pray for us!
Blessings,
Sister Amy Hereford, Sister Fran Maher and Sister Margaret Schulz
