“For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” (Matt. 18:20)

This past weekend, we experienced this truth as we met at our provincial house in Hankinsnon.

We are grateful to all of those who kept us in prayer during (and leading up to) the days of our provincial election chapter.

It was a beautiful gathering of those Sisters in our province well enough to take part. We were also blessed by the presence of our Superior General, Sr. Roswitha, from Germany, and one of her councillors, Sr. Paulit, who is originally from India.

The comment was made, on more than one occasion, of how good it was to ‘be together,’ just to have the chance to spend time together and visit.

So often, we only come together for a short time, for a few hours’ meeting. When we spend more time together at the provincial house it is for retreat; therefore, with the silence, there is not much opportunity to visit.

These days of Chapter were a grace-filled opportunity to spend time with our Sisters.

I would like to ask your continued prayers for our community and especially for the new leadership, whose offices begin June 1st.

May the Holy Spirit continue to guide our community during this transition and in the days, months, and years ahead.
