Giving thanks with Sisters Kathy, Joseph and Patricia
A Thanksgiving for Community Life and Mission
On Thursday, 6th March 2025, a Eucharistic Celebration was held at St Louise's Southport to give thanks for the life and mission of the Community there since 2011. Father Paul Roche C.M. celebrated the Mass. Father Paul emphasized that our Community houses are our homes, a place where we feel at home. A place where we can express our opinions and our voices are heard and respected. It is the place where we are loved as companions, striving together to follow the call of Jesus through the Vincentian charism. As such, there is sadness when our houses close but we are on a life-long journey of hope and so we look to the future with joyful confidence.
