Published on November 24, 2010

…providence. Saying “thank you” in any form helps us to remember that the practice of gratitude, over time, will shape us into a community of people who remember where we come from, why we are here and for what we strive — i.e., the fullness of life in God. All the Sisters of Providence join me in wishing you a very wonderful, blessed Thanksgiving! Thank you for your friendship and support of us and our mission. Sister Denise Wilkinson, SP…

Hardy harbingers of spring: Spring 2012

Published on March 14, 2012

…distress and in times of joy. Like the yellow crocus, each of us sings a song of hope and compassion “without a word.” Perhaps we sing “for nobody” just because compassion is who we are or hope to be more and more. Like the tiny crocus may each of us strive to be aware of the gift of life that surges through us and prompts us to sing the song composed by Providence for each of us. May we sing…

Thanksgiving Reflection

Published on November 19, 2015

…another’s eyes (and heart). The prayer comes from the Catholic Mass celebrated on the USA’s Thanksgiving Day. On that day the celebrant will pray in our name: Creator all powerful, your gifts of love are countless and your goodness infinite. As we come before you on Thanksgiving Day with gratitude for your kindness, open our hearts to have concern for every man, woman and child, so that we may share our gifts in loving service. Amen! May it be so!…

Stitching a thanksgiving “quilt of words” together

Published on November 23, 2014

…joy overflow as I recall the abundant blessings of your grace!” From the prayer sent in our SP monthly mailing: It begins with this quote from President Abraham Lincoln as he inaugurated a national day of thanksgiving in 1863: “The year that is drawing toward its close has been filled with blessings of fruitful fields and healthful skies. To these bounties, which are so constantly enjoyed that we are prone to forget the source from which they come others have…

A Valentine’s Day reflection for 2014

Published on February 13, 2014

I woke up thinking about hearts. Physical hearts — healthy ones, not-so-healthy ones; baby hearts, grown-up hearts; gifted, transplanted hearts; hearts stopping suddenly or over years and years of time. Metaphoric hearts — source of our emotions — happy, sad; wounded, broken, mending, healed; sturdy, fragile; confident, wary; optimistic, fretful; carefree, burdened; passionate, indifferent. The list could on and on, couldn’t it? How’s your heart — physically and/or metaphorically? Are you inclined to prayer of praise and/or petition when you…

Published on March 4, 2014

…a new way of being in the world that broadens diversity, deepens interiority and strengthens relationality.” I’ve come across this fascinating quote just in the nick of time — a Lenten reflection is due! The ideas jam-packed into these five sentences both challenge me and stir a sense of excitement in me as I begin to prepare for Lent and the practices of prayer and action that would help me choose “in love and for love” for the good of…

Easter reminds us that death is not the end

Published on April 16, 2014

…continues to work through human persons who love God. We also visited the grave of Sister Regina Mary Wallace, who died in Taiwan in 2012. Again, we cleaned, arranged flowers and prayed. As at Mother Marie Gratia’s tomb, I was so aware of the designs of Providence lived out in the life of this intelligent, gentle and strong Sister of Providence. As we commemorate Holy Week and especially Good Friday, I find myself thinking often about Tomb Sweeping Day. While…

Published on May 9, 2014

…of Providence Spirituality and Conference Center. The National Shrine of Our Lady of Providence is now located in a prayerful space in the Church of the Immaculate Conception at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Ind. The shrine space looks lovely and is very conducive to individual or small group prayer.

The pastels of the portrait complement the muted rose-grey-white marble of…

Celebrating Sister Joni as she professes first vows on June 26

Published on June 28, 2016

…friend had managed to “cast a mantle” around Joni that precipitated Joni to leave one path in life for another. From that moment on, Joni continued to explore, to learn all the ways Providence has to liberate her – all of us – from the comforts and security of the safe lives we create for ourselves. Joni was willing to learn what liberation comes as one leaves the old behind and embraces following a persistent call. However, Paul cautions all…

Published on October 6, 2014

…don’t go into dinner today and say something like “Denise sure got those wrong. She should have named….” Rather, please listen to mine and think about yours; when we go into dinner we can share the richness, agreed? I believe Mother Theodore’s treasures were these: steadfast belief in Providence; an enduring and practical love of people – especially her sisters; and a sense of this place, Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, as the deep well from which she drank in the presence, strength,…

A reflection for first vows

Published on July 4, 2019

…meaning of each vow, I think there are a few sentences worth repeating. In writing about obedience, Emily said: Sister Emily receives her SP cross from Sister Dawn “We think of obedience as deep listening. We must listen deeply to the voice of the Spirit in ourselves, in others in our community, in our leadership teams, in our friends, and in the world around us. … to find out what piece of the great work is ours to do.” As…
