We conclude with the Sisters ‘rich in years’ who celebrated their birthday on 23 May 2025.

This is how Mother Maria Rosa refers to them in her Circular Letter for 23 May 2025:

“In our communities there are Sisters who are “rich in years” and rich in genuine and simple holiness.

A holiness like that of Giovanna Antida, Saint Agostina, Blessed Nemesia and Blessed Enrichetta; a holiness that teaches us to give our lives every day, in the joy of serving the poor.”

At the retirement home in Cervia

together with the community of Ravenna – Monsignor Morelli’s shelter for minors

In Thonon, at the assisted living facility for the elderly Balcons du lac

After celebrating St. Giovanna Antida, Sister Francine organised a second event.

Here is the invitation and the fun questionnaire.

Here we go again! We have just celebrated St. Giovanna Antida (on 23 May)

and now… (the “veterans” of the House will remember! Perhaps!)

It’s QUIZ time! In French = “big game”.

In mixed teams (residents and staff).

You have until 11 June (2025, of course!) to hand in your completed questionnaires to Sister Francine. Once they have been marked, you will be invited to the announcement of the results and the prize-giving!

There will be prizes for all participants!
