Five Sisters from Cullman recently attended the national gathering of “55 & Under. ” The program, held at Immaculate Monastery in Norfolk, NE, gathered Benedictine Sisters in this age bracket from across the USA & from Mexico for conversations envisioning the future of Benedictine life and an opportunity to share time together. A service project was also an important part of the gathering.
In this photo, from left to right, are the Cullman sisters who attended: Sister Lynn Marie McKenzie (who attended in her role as President of the Monastic Congregation of St. Scholastica), Sister Tonette Sperando, Sister Therese Haydel, Sister Gabriela Ramirez, and Sister Michelle St. Marie.
