On Wednesday, February 4th, the SSND community in Waterdown, Ontario set off on another of our cherished armchair adventures. This time we went to Stella Maris in Timonium, MD. Whenever we “travel,” we immerse ourselves in the culture, daily life, and spirit of our destination, and this visit was no exception. Our tour guides at Stella Maris, led by Sister Rosalia Federici, welcomed us with warmth and enthusiasm!
The SSND Community at 3030 Park, Bridgeport, celebrated Evensong on the Feast of the Presentation of Jesus in the Temple, February 2nd. Together in community, we renewed our vows while holding lighted candles in recognition of it being Candlemas Day.
Ethel Turrill began very early with the SSNDs when, in September 1930, she began first grade at St. John in Bergenfield, NJ, where the School Sisters of Notre Dame taught. In her long life, she never wavered in her love of family and in her devotion to the Blessed Mother and her Son. In retirement, walking and praying her rosary was a highlight of each day. Her goal was three miles and seven or eight rosaries! We are grateful for you, Sister Adria. May you rest in the loving arms of our God.
