Have no fear...it will happen again at next month's Parents' Guild meeting, and I may even tape it. THEN I'll talk to monsignor.

PS: "Off the path, indeed!" And what a shame, too, because all the sisters are very nice (and very old) ladies. It will be difficult for me to do this.

Just goes to prove that there are no fools like old fools! Maybe its time they were sent off to a mental hospital.

The "old" ones are fine; it's the baby boomer generation you have to watch out for. Just to cite an example from the Carondelet Provincial House ...

"Our belief that all of life and creation is sacred motivates our urgent concerns for Earth, our home. We will continue to join with others working for systemic changes that will enable all to live in a right relationship with the Earth."

As a Province, we are members of the Federation of Sisters of St. Joseph. We work for justice within the framework of the United Nations issues for economy, ecology and equity.

Our UN-NGO representative is Carol Zinn SSJ who can be reached at carolzinn@earthlink.net.
