Sister Regina Mulenga, FMSA, asked some Sisters what they were grateful for this year. She also took their pictures!
Sister Florence Leising
Every day is a day of thanksgiving! It's not just one day.
I give thanks to God for all God's gifts. What a privilege it is to be a child of God!
The Lord has done mighty things in my life. I've received one blessing after another.
I love to create. I love to draw, and to use my iPad. I love playing word games! I love my nice private room.
I enjoy every minute of every day.
Every day I pray, "Take my hand, dear God, and hold tight so I can walk with you ... upstairs to heaven!"
Sister Mary Mendum
I believe God calls us to fill the world with peace and love.
I believe that we do this by our constant gratitude for God's holy embrace.
This song expresses my feelings:
This is holy ground
We're standing on holy ground
For our God is present
and this is holy ground.
Sister Henrita Frost
I am grateful for each other. We are all journeying together.
I am grateful to be able to offer whatever I can do to others and all creation.
I am grateful to be able to help others.
I am always grateful for being in the presence of God and others, and for being able to share God together.
This is gift.
I am grateful that God is with us every step of the way.
