This Saturday we celebrated our Sr Tess on her 60th anniversary of monastic life. Sixty years is a long time, as our chaplain, Fr Kevin reminded us during the Mass. This long life of fidelity to prayer and praise, labor and service has molded our sister into a woman after God's own heart. She chose to have a small celebration with a few family members and friends, who enjoyed a special meal at the McMahon's retreat house follwed by some entertainment.
