Thanksgiving Greetings

 Thanksgiving  Greetings

 
Wishing you and your loved ones a Blessed and Joyous Thanksgiving!  We are particularly grateful to the many ways you have creatively stayed in touch with your ‘Cluny Family’ throughout this challenging and difficult 2020 Year of the Global Pandemic.

We join you in giving our Creator God thanks and praise
We have been kept safe and free from all harm and disease.

We are grateful for Sister Joan who has been with us these last few years and has now received an obedience to our Mother House Community in Paris.  She has been named our Congregation’s General Secretary.

We are grateful for our Mary Star of the Sea Community in San Pedro, CA who during this year moved from the Parish Convent to the Little Sisters of the Poor in San Pedro, CA.  In our hour of need, Little Sisters of the Poor,  welcomed us.  Sister Loretto is in the Assisted Living at the Jeanne Jugan Residence and Sisters Ena, Mary and Mary Patrice are in the Retreat House on the same grounds.  
Their new address is:

Sisters of St. Joseph of Cluny
Retreat Center
2100 S. Western Avenue
San Pedro, CA  90732-4331

Sister Genevieve has been named our new Provincial and began her mandate on November 11th.  She will be leaving California to take up residence at the Provincial House in Middletown, RI on December 12, 2020. We are grateful for her generous ‘Yes’ to this call to serve as Provincial.

We are grateful to Sister Luke for her 8 years serving as Provincial.  She is staying at the Provincial House until the end of the year to assist with the Leadership Transition and has been assigned to our St. Teresa of Avila Community in Norwich, CT.  She will arrive there in early January 2021.

We are grateful to our Affiliates, Associates and Donors for the generous support of our Province Communities and our Ministries throughout this very difficult year.

The Lord bless you and keep you; 
the Lord make His face shine upon you and be gracious to you; 
the Lord lift up His countenance upon you 
and give you peace. 

- Numbers 6:24-26
