This blog, A Nun’s Life, has relocated. You can now find me at http://ANunsLife.org. New look, but same nun!
This will be the final post at the old address of http://nuns2day.wordpress.com. You’ll still be able to see all of the content from my blog (my posts, your comments) since its inception in June 2006 at the new address.
Please be sure to update your bookmarks and links to my blog.
As promised, I took a couple little videos (I don’t have a real video camera, just the one on my digital camera) so that I could share with you some of the profession ceremony of Sister Katherine Collard, IHM.
In this video, Katherine responds to Sister Mary Fran Gilleran, IHM President, who asks Katherine to speak to her desire to become an IHM Sister.
On Sunday, May 4, 2008, Sister Katherine Collard, IHM professed final vows during the Eucharistic Liturgy. It was a joy to celebrate with her and to welcome her fully as an IHM Sister. We are greatly enriched by Katherine’s presence, her gifts, her faithfulness, and her love. I have a few videos of the ceremony that I’d like to share with you. Stay tuned!
We are also blessed to have just had another final profession of vows by Sister Barbara Stanbridge, IHM. Unfortunately my plane ride was canceled and I missed the ceremony. However, you can read about her profession in the article “Detroit Business Woman Returns to IHM Sisters as Vowed Member” at our IHM website. I’ve known Barbara almost since I first joined the community. She is a delight, full of energy, and committed to mission.
Greetings! I’ve been away from Chicago and my computer for a few days … lots to tell! On Sunday I was in Monroe, Michigan, home of the IHM Motherhouse, for the final profession of vows of Sister Katherine Collard, IHM. It was fabulous … I’ll write more later. For now, I am catching up with myself and trying to get myself off to work!
Here’s a picture as I walked to the Motherhouse for the profession …
