Vocations News: Coping with COVID-19 and Come and Sees Yes, 2020 has been quite a year. We managed to get in a couple visits with inquiring women before COVID became a byword and seeming harbinger of all that could go wrong with the year 2020. By lockdown in March it was hoped a few weeks would be sufficient to dispel the …
Shakespeare wrote that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. True enough. And three times the roses would likely smell even more sweet. Now three more roses are finally off in the annual Running of the Rose sponsored by the Knights of Columbus. As part of their pro-life outreach, the Knights coordinate the pilgrim silver roses as …
Much as we shared with you at the beginning of the serious quarantine period about how we would pray for you and in your stead when you couldn’t, our fellow Passionist sisters in Kentucky have penned a blog post explaining that beautifully. We invite you to visit their site, pray for their community, and thank God that so many cloistered …
Corpus Christi is only a month and a week away. But with the pandemic, it’s sure to be different this year. May Our Lady intercede to end the pandemic so that all may once again enjoy not just Corpus Christi Processions, but daily Mass and regular reception of all the Sacraments again, especially the Eucharist. Our prayers in adoration do …
This year we marked the beginning of Mary’s month in a special way as North America was reconsecrated to Mary under the title of Mary, Mother of the Church.

Our Host of the Day image today is an archive photo of one of our Sisters adoring Our Lord in Our Lady of Mercy Oratory in New Mexico. Nestled into the corner of the two wing dormitory was the Oratory used for wintertime nocturnal adoration and daytime visits. The tiny tabernacle was of hand beaten metal and almost reminded some …
“It’s Divine Mercy Sunday. Which round object has the most attention in your heart? Coronavirus or our Crowned King hidden in the Host? Yes, the virus may get one sick, it may kill, it might do nothing…in that sense it is then unreliable. But it cannot touch the soul. That is a very reliable fact. Our Crowned King, whose …
Just one week ago on Holy Thursday, while the world began a Triduum unlike any other in modern times, we solemnly marked the day Our Lord Jesus gave himself to us in the Blessed Sacrament. Today on our altar exposed in the monstrance, surrounded in lilies and bright flowers, he is present in Easter Joy. Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. …
In a couple of posts recently, the photos we were trying to upload fell through, as it were, either not showing in our news blog page or our social media venues. So, to make up for the loss of yet another Gunther shot we send you yet more Gunther shots from his favorite balance beam. He is well, handling COVID-19 …
A photo of Mater Dei Oratory with a Handmaid in adoration. Never forget we are praying for you and in your place!
Without much irony, God’s Providence has given us another cross at a time when the world is feeling the weight of the cross of the COVID pandemic.
