Dear Friends,

SR. MARY MEGAN OF ST. JOSEPH:  This is wonderful news with which I begin this week’s bulletin message. The Passionist cloistered nuns, whose convent is located on Churchview Avenue, are having a profession of vows this Sunday. The Sisters live a contemplative life of prayer and solitude and dedicate themselves to a deep love of Jesus Crucified. Currently, they have two novices, women who are discerning a call to their life. Megan has spent several years discerning and while living in the convent has learned their contemplative life. She has asked to be allowed to take her vows as a Passionist Nun. The community voted in favor of admitting her. She will take her first vows this Sunday and will be known as Sr. Mary Megan of St. Joseph. I am honored to be the celebrant at the Mass of Sr. Megan’s profession. Pray for Megan and all the Passionist Nuns.
