In August we finished the work of the General Chapter. Previously we had announced the election of our superior, Sr. Elizabeth Mary, as the new General of the Order. On August 15th Sr. Mary Helen was appointed prioress of Hyning. Many of you will remember her as our prioress in 2006 to 2008. So we are pleased to welcome her home. Yesterday we said goodbye to Mary-Ann who has been living with us for a year’s experience. Our community here for 2022 consists of Sr. Mary Helen, Sr. Mary Joseph who is in Nazareth House, Sr. Mary, Sr. Mary Stella, Sr. Mary Colette, Sr. Mary Bernard, Sr. Michaela, Sr. Reina and Sr. Pauline, our junior.
The building work is nearly complete and we look forward to re-opening in the near future, no dates decided yet, not before October because of work needed on fire doors.
Sr. Michaela is recovering from surgery for cancer but is making good progress and counts very much on your prayers.
