I am asking for a special gift; the gift of your memories. As the Community of Sisters of Divine Providence becomes smaller, so too does the group of us who were privileged to grow up with them and be blessed by their special influence on our lives. I am asking you to think about these memories (and talk with others who also remember them) and share these with me.
Reflect on those things that still cause you to smile, laugh, or even cry with joy; the school days of course, humorous anecdotes, inspirational experiences, the lasting values you have not forgotten, special memories of an individual sister, living or deceased, etc….
I would like to gather these and compile them into a work that can be shared by us all, while we are still here! I can’t promise every memory will be included, but I do promise that all memories of any living sister will definitely be shared with them. Copies of photos are certainly welcome, but cannot be returned. Reflect during these special Easter days, and kindly return your memories to me by May 31st.
Thank you in advance! If you wish to participate, please contact:
