On 7th July we celebrated the Golden Jubilee of Religious Profession of our Reverend Mother Prioress, Sr Bernadette of Jesus. Below is a link to the video of the Holy Mass (main celebrant Archbishop Bernard Longley) in which Our Mother renewed her vows. https://t.co/8lnP8GjcL7 pic.twitter.com/qNCU8C1iFx

Please also pray for a miracle that someday Maria can attend Catholic school. So far we have been turned away constantly for being too poor. She is way behind, in Grade 3 at 10 due to our situation.
Thank you

My mother used to live in Penn. She was born in 1917 and passed away 2012. She would tell me of the times, if she was ever late for mass and The Blessed Sacrament passed by, going to the convent. She would drop to her knees on the gravel and get holes in her stockings then a telling off from her mother.
I never lived in Penn but I was taken to your convent for mass one Sunday when I was 9 years old. I still remember that day like it was yesterday. I was totally fascinated.
My mother used to talk a great deal about your convent and of a school friend who entered, Cassie Bennett I believe she was called.
I miss my mother terribly and all her lovely stories.
Please pray for her, Maureen FAY, Nee PONDER. Pray for our family that is quite broken apart.
I will remember you in my prayers dear sisters. 🙏
I have had the pleasure of watching the documentary (Life In Hidden Light), made about all of you and your monastery several times. I am personally unsure about many aspects of God and religion. Even doubtful at times. However, I cannot help admiring your strong commitment to your beliefs, your lifestyle, your vocations and to each other. It is humbling that so many of you dedicate your lives to the service of others through prayer, something that I suspect many of us are doing incorrectly, if at all. I imagine (rightly or wrongly) that it would feel like a burden at times. However, I cannot claim to know the answer to that.
If you would be so kind, I would like to request prayers for everyone who is unlucky enough to be living in or with toxic, abusive, unhealthy, hurtful, harmful situations, and the damaged people who cause such things. I have unfortunately been forced to deal with several of these situations throughout my life. I recently had to permanently end a friendship of ten years due to the other person's consistently toxic and abusive behaviour towards me. As much as I tried to help this person, and love them into healthiness, hoping that my kindness would one day be enough, I simply could not.
It has become far too tiring and much too heavy a burden for me. It is no longer something I can tolerate in my life. It is unhealthy and unsustainable for me. This person is deeply damaged within themselves, and they haven't had so much as a shred of desire to change over the last ten years I have known them.
I cannot help this person but I would still like most people in the world to be helped, including them. I deeply empathize with the hurt and the cruelty that many of us experience at the hands of other people, both intentionally and unintentionally. I find it very sad and disappointing. I am hopeful that your prayers may bring some comfort and strength to those of us surviving abuse and cruelty of any kind. Love to you all.
I am a nurse for trappist monks in the U.s. in their infirmary. Also a blessing for God..
Peace to your hearts.
and
love,
of course,
Mrs. Gayle Aroian
Interestingly, I watched a video just yesterday on the Buddhist Yogis of Tibet. You have more in common with them than you may think.
Be well and please stay healthy during these uncertain times.

For the Pope. For peace and stability in Nigeria. For a swift end to the corona virus. For the holy souls in purgatory. For the poor.
Thank you,

She started on antidepressants several weeks ago and a lot of “stuff” is bubbling to the surface.
Her parents are literally sick with fear.
Home life is dreary and sad and scary.
