< Return to Ceremonies
Sisters Colleen McDermott
&
Kathy Repass
Sisters Colleen McDermott and Kathy Repass entered the novititiate of
the Dominican Sisters of San Rafael on Sunday, November
8, 2009. The Mass and Ceremony followed two days of
the sisters' Annual Assembly. What a joyful way to
end a weekend!
Each sister has a page in The Book of Clothing
and Professions that show her steps along the
way of her commitment to the congregation.
The first time it is signed is when the sister
becomes a novice. |
Sister Sue Pixley, our Novice Director, calls
Colleen and Kathy forward to state their request
of the congregation. |
Sisters Colleen(right) and Kathy hold the Constitutions
of the Congregation as they express their desire
to become a member of the congregation more
fully. Sisters Sally Lowell (left) and Christine
Wilcox, standing behind are witnesses. |
After Sister Kathy and her witnesses sign the book,
so does Sister Maureen McInerney, Prioress
General. |
Sister Marie de Lourdes prays a blessing for our
novices as the sisters raise their hands over
them. |
