Lori Strawn, Wichita, Kansas: “Into these Woods”

Published on December 1, 2014

…I began to find my way. I was not the only “new girl” — Sister Barbara Doherty began her tenure as President of the College my Freshman year. I won a poetry contest celebrating her inauguration. We became friends. When she visited California, she had lunch with my mother, who still speaks admiringly of her. As an English major, I was warned that Sr. Rosemary Nudd was a tough teacher.

The Easter season of our everyday lives

Published on April 3, 2015

Did you take any extra time to sit with Jesus during these weeks of Lent? I did. I took some time with Jesus while sitting in the tomb of life. My phone rang and all I heard was: He’s dead. He’s dead. Can you come? My heart sank. I jumped in my car and asked Christ to be with me and with this family. There was nothing that I could say but be there. The wife wept when she greeted…

On spirituality and aging

Published on October 15, 2015

Sister Ann Casper (formerly Sister Kenneth Ann), accompanies Sister Mary Michael Lager, a celebrant at the Congregation’s 90s and older party. As I began reflecting on the “spirituality of aging” for this article, I soon knew that I would have to change the topic from spirituality of aging to spirituality and aging. This comes from my favorite definition of spirituality: “True Christian spirituality is faith raised to a lifestyle.” Our spirituality is about living our experience of God. We do…

A Sister of Providence mom reflects on Mother’s Day

Published on May 6, 2016

…was 4 years old. In today’s world, that’s almost an embarrassment. And then there were times when Mark wouldn’t eat. The doctor said, “He’ll eat when he’s hungry. Don’t worry.” Much was to come. There were those toddler years. Mark was darling, but oh so defiant. It amazed me that his little personality was coming through that young. Then came T-ball, little league, kid’s football and Mark was on the wrestling and golf teams in high school. There’s that first…

The need for civility during the political season

Published on August 12, 2016

…a civil manner. Seek a common good. That old saying comes to mind: Sometimes, you just have to agree to disagree. In Leviticus 19:18, the Lord says, “You shall not take vengeance or bear a grudge against the sons and daughters of your own people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself.” And, in 1 Corinthians 13:13, Saint Paul said, “And now these three remain: faith, hope and love.
