2012 Photo #1: Visiting Sr. Flora and Sr. Adalberta in the nursing home. These are the two Social Mission Sisters from Hungary who lived in our monastery for many years before us and took care of the shrine. When we were getting started, they had been in the nursing home for a year and a half, and they gave us their monastery! We are so grateful for the Sisters and their many years of prayer that sanctified this place. Sr. Flora (seated in photo) has since passed away, but Sr. Adalberta still resides at Regina Health Center in Richfield, Ohio.
2012 Photo #2: Mother Theodora enjoys some tomatoes from the garden before canning the others. This photo was taken in our old kitchen, before renovations. We don't miss the "carpet that looks like brick" in the kitchen!
Countdown: 3 days to go! Remembering the year 2011:
