Ronald McDonald House Fundraiser

This past weekend, Sr. Molly and I went to a fundraiser for the Ronald McDonald House in Kansas City. It was a wonderful evening with many items for both a silent and oral auction. As you moved from room to room there were several different restaurants that provided a variety of food for the sampling. It was such a nice evening and from what I gathered was a big success for Ronald McDonald House. What a wonderful organization that shows amazing hospitality to so many who are in need!

Blisters for Sisters 2010

This past weekend we attended the annual Blisters for Sister. This is a terrific event supporting the women religious in the area. This year the walk was held at Nativity Parish. Over 100 sisters participated in the walk along with around 200 "friends of Sisters". The walk was 2.4 miles through the local neighborhood and the weather was perfect for the participants.

In the back are Sisters Cecilia, Fran, Mary, Elizabeth, Molly, Barb, Suzanne, Judy and Patricia.

Sitting at the table are Sisters Mary Ann, Mary Rae, and Anne

A huge thank you to all the Serra Club members who not only hosted this event but offer their prayers and support to all our communities.

Benedictine College Liturgical Choir

Once again we were blessed this past week to have the Benedictine Liturgical Choir visit us here at the Mount. It is truly a blessing and a pleasure to spend some time listening to their marvelous voices that can't help but lift ones heart in prayer.

Here are a few clips from that wonderful afternoon.
