Merry Christmas and Peace among all people of Faith.
United we stand, divided we fall. God is an everlasting ALL LOVING God who is re- creating this World if HIS as He sees fit every single day. He asks us to be patient in all corners of the World. He is the EVERLASTING WORLD LEADER & we are still Children in His Sight.

Wonderful that you have given over 40 years of service as a Catholic Adrian Dominican Sister!!! Congratulations
