Following two years of intense community wide Chapter preparation, a Quasi chapter, and six months of prayer, the time had finally come for Franciscan Sisters of Christian Charity Chapter 2013. Delegates and fellow Sisters arrived from missions near and far. All arrived with hearts that have listened to the Spirit and to their fellow Sisters.
The social planned for Friday night was canceled due to the death of Sr. Muriel. Instead, Sisters gathered in community for her wake. Sr. Louise’s talk captured Sr. Muriel’s spirit of joy and charity. She modeled the Chapter theme “Living the Gospel and Serving God’s People.”
Saturday, June 16th found the staff members of the Chapter in the gym for some pre-chapter training for their assigned tasks. The planning committee had all things well-organized and ready for Chapter 2013 to begin.
