Congratulations to our new Little Sisters and novices!

On Saturday we welcomed four new Little Sisters into the Congregation as they professed vows of chastity, poverty, obedience and hospitality. Pictured here immediately after the ceremony with Most Rev. Raymond Chappetto, auxiliary bishop of Brooklyn, are (l to r) Sister Andrea Rose, Sister Selina Camille of the Passion, Sister Mary of the Passion and Sister Chiara Therese. They will be serving in Pawtucket, Rhode Island, Perth, Western Australia, Kansas City, Missouri and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania respectively.

The day before four postulants entered the Congregation's novitiate. These new novices will spend two years in formation at our novitiate in Queens, Village, New York. They are pictured here with Bishop Chappetto and the newly professed Little Sisters. At far left: Sister Amy Catherine Joseph, from Indiana, and Sister Theresa Joseph, from upstate New York.
