Vol. XXXVI, No. 10 USA– July 2015
A month ago, we celebrated our Province Assembly-Chapter; the theme was: “Widening the Circle creating communion”
With this, we expressed what our Sisters did in the past when they left the USA to go to other countries to share life and mission. Countries such as, Papua New Guinee, Ghana, Australia, and more recently to Antigua, St. Kitts and Jamaica… it also expresses what our Sisters did here, right at home, going to the South, to work in education, and similar ministries in many other places. During the first day of our Assembly-Chapter, we listened to many different reports, which gave us a glimpse of our Province’s multiple ministries; I would also like to acknowledge those ministries from which we did not hear much because of lack of time. THANK YOU! For your dedication and efforts to widen the Circle and create communion wherever you are and with whatever you do. Thank you for your efforts to be open to the inspiration of the Holy Spirit; This was evident when we defined the Province’s Mission Statement: We, Holy Spirit Missionary Sisters, are an international religious community of women disciples. Empowered by the Holy Spirit we invite people to a deeper communion with the Triune God by living and proclaiming the Gospel of joy, love, peace, and justice. In dialogue with people of diverse cultures and traditions, we minister together with them in promoting human dignity, life-giving relationships, and care for all of creation. Sr. Monica Mabel, SSpS
