Pray With Us
This year, 2020, we celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day and the 5th Anniversary of Pope Francis’ encyclical on the environment, Laudato Si. Both anniversaries call us to focus our attention and care on our common home, Earth, and to make meaningful and sustainable responses to her...
We offer the following prayers, reflections and resources as a source of encouragement and support.
In Memoriam
Sister Estelle died at Notre Dame Convent, Waterdown, Canada, on March 7, 2020, 17 days after her 104th birthday. She was in her 83rd year as a SSND.
Membership in the Legion of Mary inspired her devotion, and she prayed unceasingly for guidance and courage. In 1962, “Our Lady really directed me right to her Son and herself, to the SSNDs at Wilton.”
Doris was a woman of quick wit and gentle teasing, tempered with a warm heart. She was at her best when she could minister to those in need. Sister Doris died suddenly on Feb. 4, 2020 at Villa Assumpta.
"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.”
-BLESSED THERESA GERHARDINGER
