2022 JUBILARIANS 75 YEARS Sister Annette Guerette, None of us should let Sister Annette’s quiet presence fool us. Her quick-witted responses often fill us with delight. A long, varied and faithful career has led Sister Annette home to the Motherhouse where she spends much time in prayer. We are grateful for the gift of you among us. Blessings on your 75th Jubilee.70 YEARS Sister Winnifred McLoughlin, The congregation and our world have much to be grateful for as Sister Winnifred has shared her gift of leadership for so many years and in so many different roles including nursing, hospital administration, and Motherhouse Administrator to name just a few. Always generous, faithful and faith-filled, Sister Winnifred now cares for our most vulnerable Sisters accompanying them as local leader. Blessed are you, Winnifred. Sister Patricia Milks, Your deep appreciation of the importance of strong family connections and a mother’s love has informed your ministry in education of young children. The lives of many parents and family members have been enriched by your presence with them in times of joy and sorrow. We are grateful for this witness of the care for “the dear neighbour.” Sister Shirley Potvin, You have generously shared the beauty of God’s love as a first community missionary to Nassau, as a teacher all across our dioceses, and also by your creation of beauty for many years at the motherhouse and more recently in the clothing choices that you made for our senior sisters’ presents. You have continued to express this love and God’s faithfulness through your deep and lasting friendships with family and friends from near and far. Sister Kathleen Roy, The little community of Britt gifted us with their daughter, whose creative and loving ministry always poured out to all the little ones, from those in primary education, and all the way to the Bahamas to the prisoners on death row. Her artistic gifts grace the halls of our Motherhouse and can be seen in the way she adds flourish to her style. And best of all, to this very day, Kathleen offers us all that smile and sparkle in who she is! Happy Double Diamond Anniversary, Kathleen!60 YEARS Sister Mary Sammon, The youngest child of Mae and Urban, Mary Flavia brought her considerable gifts to the Congregation 60 years ago. From the wonder of bringing music out of choirs, high school students, and elementary students still, to encouraging us all in the myriad ways we are called to Celebrate Life, to her tireless devotion and connection to L'Arche Sudbury, Mary gives her all. She is constant in her pursuit of current events bringing her passion for justice for the underdog. But as we celebrate this Diamond Anniversary we most love the prayerfulness she brings to the "dear neighbour" wherever they may be. Happy Jubilee, Mary!
