Taking advantage of the visit of our good friend, Father Larry, OFM,Cap., we had our new novitiate common room and dormitory well blessed in the best Franciscan tradition yesterday, Feast of the Holy Innocents. May these child martyrs pray for our young Poor Clares, that they may be true witnesses to Christ all the days of their religious lives! Following are some photos of the event:
