Pray With Us
In Memoriam
When she was a fourth grader, the family moved to Chicago, and a year later she enrolled in St. Cyril’s School and met the Sisters of Loretto. “It was here, in the sixth grade, that I first thought I would like to be a sister.”
Catherine Staab was received into the novitiate on July 16, 1947 and was given the name, Sister Mary Bernadetta.
Eileen Prior and her twin sister Theresa were born to John Prior and Mary Heslin, both from Co. Leitrim, Ireland, on May 9, 1931, and were baptized at St. Andrew the Apostle Church in Forest Hills, Massachusetts.
"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.”
