Celebrating a New O.P.-to-be!

I will lead her into the desert and allure her…

With joyful hearts, we are excited to announce the profession of the first vows of our Sister Mary Francis of the Holy Cross on Saturday, February 16, 2019!

“Faith and family characterize my childhood in San Jose, CA,” Sister Mary Francis wrote in her vocation story.  “I loved going to church and always ran to hug the parish priests when I saw them.  As a little girl, I even wanted to be a priest, but whenever anyone suggested becoming a sister, I replied decidedly ‘No!’  Consecrated life was outside my experience.” Want to know more? Her story continues here.

Please keep her in prayer as she prepares for this important day. Congratulations, Sister!
