This last month has flown by. We have been super budy with the general everyday happenings of community life but also many special things going on.
This month started off with a "come and see" retreat. We had 7 girls who came and stayed with us for 3 days. All of them were wonderful and so full of life!
During the retreat we took them to St. Joseph's, a school which a few of the sisters work, carnival. That was a blast. who knew Sister Mary Anne and Sr. Mary Pia could do such wonderful face painting! It was wonderful seeing all the Sisters interact with the kids.
Right after the retreat, Sr. Mary Michael and I went to Franciscan University. (see previous blog posting!)
We are getting ready for our fundraiser- Harvest of Blessings Gala. It looks like it is going to be amazing! So, that is all for now!
Lori note- sorry again for taking a while to post! I talked to Ari Thursday after election day- she was in good spirits- she sounded so happy and peaceful! She's also a good of listener as ever. ;-)
