On a recent beautiful spring day, several Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary and associates gathered to work on updating the Friendship Garden at Mt. St. Joseph. This work is an extension of the Chapter commitment “to address the needs of women and children, especially as they are impacted by economic, environmental, and racial inequity.” Specifically, this work will extend our care of the Earth and care for those in economic need, as produce will be donated to the local food pantry. This fall the garden will be dedicated to those who died from COVID-19.
May you always have an angel at your side.
