Holy Week, The Holy Triduum, and the Easter Season!

Dear Friends,

(the picture on the last post was from a retreat that we helped with recently - forgot to post that)

This has been a GREAT week! There is nothing like Holy Week and Easter. Time to reflect, clean, cook, reflect again... It blows a person's mind to think of how God can love us so much. The only way to fathom it is to think about a parent and a child. We love our children so much, but God loves us a million (infinitely really) times more!

Receive His Love. Bask in His Love. Receive the Power of the Resurrection in your life! Live this reality that you are a part of the Body of Christ, part of the Risen Lord! We must strive to live this. Even when we suffer, there is still a joy that comes from Christ!

God bless you all!

Snow and Sr. Josita's Feast Day!


The picture at the top is one of our elderly Sisters that just had a big Feast of St. Joseph!
Last week we had several inches of snow and here the young Sisters are getting a taste of what it's like to shovel snow!
Much more to tell you -- it'll have to be in the next post...
God bless you all!

Lent, Sisters Home, and Infirmary Fun

We don't have time right now to post a picture, but the other day, one of our nurses took outside one of our elderly Sisters and had a wheelchair race! It was a lot of fun and great exercise for Sister! Maybe next week we can post a video of it . . .

The Sisters returned to their schools after Spring Break. Hopefully it was a fun and restful week home for them. God bless them as they are instruments of God to help form the students in our schools!

God bless all of our family and friends, especially during this Lent Season. May He guide us to a deeper relationship with Him!

Spring Break, Lent, and All of God's Blessings!!!


Dear Friends,
Rocky (our dog) came to Sr. Mary Ana's birthday party! He's the only man that lives here besides Jesus....
We're thoroughly enjoying Spring Break as this is one of the times of the year that all the Sisters are HOME! We're also in the middle of Lent, of course, and asking God to lead us into a deeper relationship with Him.
Sr. Mary Paul left for the Motherhouse this morning. We will miss her very much.
God has blessed us abundantly! We count among our blessings our family and friends that we have made along the way. God bless you all! Pray for us as we pray for you!

Jesus Moved In & We Moved In!




We actually moved into our renovated chapel on Thursday!!! It is more beautiful than we could have ever imagined!
Happy Lent to all of you! Don't forget to take time to be alone with God, to listen to Him, and to commune with the Holy Trinity!
