Pray With Us
On October 14, our province celebrates Canadian Thanksgiving Day with our sisters, associates, and staff in Canada. We give God praise and thanks for all we have received and pray in gratitude for the abundant blessings bestowed upon us, our family, friends, and congregation.
O God, our words cannot express what our minds can barely comprehend and our hearts feel when we hear of children and adults deceived and transported to unknown places for purposes of sexual exploitation and forced labor because of human greed.
In Memoriam
Irene always knew that she was the beloved of God, and that this was the source of her joy and energy.
Sister Mary Elizabeth knew from a very early age that she wanted to devote her life to God. Her last mission as a SSND was at Ozanam Hall, where Sisters from our province created a new community last September.
Sister Martin Therese taught for over 44 years. She was a dedicated and creative professional and was greatly appreciated at the St. Alphonsus School. She was very close to her family and had nineteen nieces and nephews, thirty-eight great-nieces and nephews, and five great-great-nieces and nephews!
"Prayer is true heavenly food and nourishment for the soul, which will starve without it. It is a remedy for the sick who desire to recover again, joy for the afflicted, strength for the weak, medicine for sinners, delight for the just, mutual support for the entire church.”
-BLESSED THERESA GERHARDINGER
