Presentation Day
Celebration 2005
Sisters and Associates
gathered at Cannon Hill to celebrate Presentation Day 2005
on Monday 21 November with the celebration of the Eucharist
followed by supper.
As Mary Franzmann,
Congregation Leader, welcomed us, a candle was lit to
remind us that we walk on the Holy Ground of our Indigenous
ancestors. Three smaller candles were lit from that one
to acknowledge the Holy Ground of all present-day dwellers. |

When
Sisters and Associates gather, one cannot help being
touched by the friendship, partnership,
support and peace that prevails
