Our Sisters in Chicago are all safe, but our bookcenter was broken into and looted last night during the riots.
Please pray for our Sisters.

Fasting Tips:
1. Drink LOTS of water. (Coffee and/or tea is also ok.)
2. Don't complain about or exaggerate it.
3. Pray for those who don’t have food security on a daily basis.
4. Offer it up for a special intention or someone you love.

I taught one of the Italian sisters (who is 91) to say “okey-dokey” and she liked it so much that she taught like seven other sisters. So now they’re all just waking around saying, “Okey Dokey” to each other and cracking up.

Recently, I had dinner with one of my aunts who’s not a practicing Catholic.
Her: Honestly, when you entered, I was hoping you would leave. It seemed like a waste of your life. But now that it’s been 8 yrs, I can see how happy you are & that you’ve become even more yourself. 😊

Meet Sister Mary Joan.
Today is her 92nd birthday!🥳
She is, by far, my favorite nun of all time.🙌🏼
I lived with her through postulancy and she taught me so much about what it means to be a Daughter of St. Paul and a Sister to all.
Would you say a little prayer for her today?☺️

You could have been born at any time in history, and yet, you were born now.
You have a purpose.
You are loved.

Just went to go visit one of our Sisters who is dying.
Every time I am at the bedside of a Sister who is passing into Eternity it reconfirms my vocation.
I know that this is how I want to die: surrounded by love & accompanied to Heaven by the prayers of my Sisters.

When i was 16 my dad took me around the house to teach me how to fix basic things like a leaky faucet or the toilet flapper or where to turn the water off when you have an issue.
I use this knowledge all the time.

I have never felt more seen and loved than when someone simply sat with me in my pain and didn’t try to fix it.
If you know someone who is hurting and you don’t know how to help, that’s ok. You don’t have to fix it...just be with them in it.
And if you’re hurting, I see you. ♥️

We ended our morning prayer a few minutes earlier than usual, which meant that there was more time before Mass.
After Morning Prayer ended, I think ALL the nuns pulled out their rosaries...bc it sounded like the twinkling of a thousand tiny windchimes.☺️

“God doesn’t give us more than we can handle” is a popular and trite saying.
God often gives us *more* than we can handle so that we become aware of how very much we need Him.
So if you feel like you can’t handle things right now, lean on Jesus.
You need Him.❤️

I JUST WANNA TALK ABOUT THE MERCY OF GOD TO EVERY SINGLE PERSON.

I frequently forget how immense His mercy is and how incredible His love.
I get sucked into the lie that I am unforgivable.
DON’T BELIEVE THAT LIE.
GOD IS TOTAL MERCY.
