Jesus, Mary and Joseph, the Holy Family, you journeyed forth into the unknown with full trust in God's providence, help us bear that courage as we make our journey this Advent!
Advent is a season of patient waiting. It is a sacred time.

In Memoriam
Described as “the kind of Sister you wanted to live with,” Sister Marie Michelle was affectionately nicknamed “Mitch” by her companion Sisters. Quiet and unassuming, always pleasant, always grateful, she was the gentlest of souls and was loved by her Sisters.
On July 16, 1947, Mary Ann became Sister Mary Prudentius, a name she had requested in honor of her beloved grandmother. She was professed on August 3, 1948, and missioned to St. Rita School in Brooklyn.
Sister Julita taught first-grade students for thirty-one years! Always very devoted to small children, Julita authored two publications for them, "The Poor Little Rich Man" and "The Little Flower of Jesus."
"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
