Community Nunning


As we had posted earlier, our community retreat was October 7-14.  During these days of silence and prayer we remembered all of you in our prayers in a special way, and want to thank you for remembering us in your prayers as well.

It was a blessed time.  During the first three days, we had time on our own to pray, reflect and rest.  Then Monday, October 10 our retreat master, Father Bill Kiel, a diocesan priest of our diocese, arrived and led us in prayer and reflection on the topics of forgiving, forgetting, reconciliation, trust and mercy.  A very different approach and one that we all truly appreciated.

As has become our custom, we had a new community photo taken at the end of the retreat.  We hope you like our "mug shot"!

Speaking of retreat, our Advent Live-in Experience is December 9-11.  We'd enjoy getting to know you and sharing with our our beautiful monastic life.  Please call Sr. Mary Clare at 724-834-3060 for additional information and/or to make reservations.
