Sister Mary Catherine's 50th Jubilee!

On Sunday, July 4, Sister Mary Catherine celebrated her 50th Jubilee, the anniversary of her Monastic Profession. Asked about her dedication to religious life, Sister Mary Catherine said, "At my mother's 'churching' service (the blessing of new mothers and babies reflective of the purification ceremoney of new mothers during biblical times), she dedicated me to the Blessed Mother. From then on, my mother's devotion to Mary rubbed off on me!"
