Happy 500th Birthday St. Teresa

Celebration Day

On April 24th our community celebrated the 500th birthday of St. Teresa of Avila by each offering some contribution.  Sr. Theodora watched Sr. Ellen Jane and Sr. Joann with interpretive singing, reading and motions to one of St. Teresa's poems.  Sr Theodora then shared what she had made using a special frame.  Sr. Shirley played the music to Nada de Turba, St. Teresa's Bookmark. Each Sister presented her contribution during the special afternoon recreation.
The entire community had a joyful birthday celebration in honor of St. Teresa of Avila and were amazed at the variety of things offered!
