Celebrations

 


These are the latest in our continual flowering in the inner courtyard. My "Seek" app names them Surprise Lilies and after this first little bunch arrived about 20-30 are now in bloom. They are sweet and appear fragile and delicate. I haven't been brave enough to try them in a vase indoors in chapel, but maybe I will this week. However, there really isn't a great need for that since our hydrangea will seemingly last into November---they are huge and in endless number this year!

These days we are celebrating life passages for some of our sisters. Miriam Mashank passed into the next life last week. Her obit is on our website here if you haven't read it yet---quite the list of accomplishments. This week we honor 10 jubilarians, celebrants of 50, 60 and 70years of Monastic Profession. Short bios of each of them can be found in the latest issue of the MOUNT magazine here.
