St. Patrick's Day Greetings
"May the road rise to meet you. May the wind be at your back. And may you be held in the loving arms of your God."
Blessings and all good wishes to everyone on this St. Patrick’s Day from your Sisters at the Columbus Motherhouse.
On this joyous day, we offer: "Deer's Cry."
It is a beautiful video created by Sr. Michelle Sherliza which includes the artistry of Shaun Davey. Click here to view.
Thank you, Sr. Michelle, for sharing this.
Reminder: Spring Mission Group Meetings...It's almost time!
The planning committee, Sisters Barbara Harrington, JoAnn Hohenbrink, Rene Weeks and Carol Davis are anxiously awaiting our gatherings.
Both Sisters and Associates are invited to be part of the morning session of the meeting and there is still time to register!
Please choose to attend one of the two options for these Zoom meetings, Sisters full day, Associates half day:
Dates: Saturday, March 22nd or Monday March 24th
Time: 10 AM – 3:30PM EDT
Please click here to register for the Spring Mission Group meeting. Sisters will register for the whole day. Associates will register for the morning which begins promptly at 10 am and concludes at noon (EDT).
When the invitation comes out it will be important to choose your date and register so that our Communications team can be prepared for the technology needed.
Once you have selected your date, be sure to mark your calendar.
Both days have identical programs and will include break-out groups, therefore, it is best if you have one person or no more than two people at an individual computer.
We know from experience it is easier to see and talk with just one or two people at a time on a screen.
Looking forward to this time together! We especially need each other during these challenging times.
Prayer Requests

She says that while on vacation in Spain, he was the victim of a robbery and was brutally murdered. Sr. Marilyn adds all who knew him are mourning the loss of a gentle, caring soul.
