Sister Chiara Marie to make Profession

Not a lot has been happening on our construction site,

so we have taken the opportunity to share our enjoyment of the just beginning Spring in our neck of the woods. 

Pictured above and around are our flowering cherry trees.

But even more beautiful is our radiant Sister Chiara Marie who has just been received to make her First Holy Profession of Vows!  The ceremony will take place on June 22nd, which we call "Covenant Day" because it was on this day that St. Clare heard the voice of the Lord saying to her, "I will always take care of you".  So, Sister Chiara Marie who bears the name of Clare in its original Italian form, will cut her own bridal covenant on this anniversary day.
