What does an American Sister look like?

She has hands to help others;  She has feet to hasten to the poor and needy;
She has eyes to see misery and want through her tears;
She has ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of humankind;
She has a mind that ever discerns the will of God;
Her spirit lifts everyone she encounters;
She has a heart  so full of love, that it overflows and floats to other needy hearts
Healing,
   cheering,
      loving, and telling
her own love of Christ , the Eternal Word,
     wherever she is!

Vocation Directors and Communicators meet in Blauvelt.

On April 17, 2012 the Communicators and Vocation Directors from Amityville, Blauvelt, Caldwell, Hope, and Sparkill held a joint meeting in Blauvelt with Mary Ellen O'Grady, OP, Promoter of Collabration. We explored possibilities of vocation promotion in this millennium. Facebook? In the past, we would not have known what it was! Now social media is a good friend to communication and vocation directors.
