Pray With Us
The United States has been called to a National Day of Prayer amid the coronavirus crisis. Let us together turn to prayer for an end to this virus and for all the poor of our world who are most impacted by this crisis.
Our provincial elections, scheduled to take place this week in Chicago, have been postponed due to concerns about our Sisters traveling, after the CDC suggested that persons older than 70 stay close to home until the virus has been contained.
Spend time praying outside to appreciate creation as a gift from God, sacred in its own right. Say a rosary or listen to how God is speaking to you through creation.
In Memoriam
Irene always knew that she was the beloved of God, and that this was the source of her joy and energy.
Sister Mary Elizabeth knew from a very early age that she wanted to devote her life to God. Her last mission as a SSND was at Ozanam Hall, where Sisters from our province created a new community last September.
Sister Martin Therese taught for over 44 years. She was a dedicated and creative professional and was greatly appreciated at the St. Alphonsus School. She was very close to her family and had nineteen nieces and nephews, thirty-eight great-nieces and nephews, and five great-great-nieces and nephews!
"Prayer is true heavenly food and nourishment for the soul, which will starve without it. It is a remedy for the sick who desire to recover again, joy for the afflicted, strength for the weak, medicine for sinners, delight for the just, mutual support for the entire church.”
