At the conclusion of this day Sr Noelene Simmons was missioned by all present as she prepares to take up the role of General Bursar for our congregation. As part of her induction, Noelene will spend the next couple of weeks working with the current General Bursar, Sr Maryanne Harford - in Rome and then London - before returning to her Australian base. 

 

On Sunday 10th June - in a spirit of joy and thanksgiving - the Sisters all gathered again to celebrate this year's jubilarians – Sr Carmel Murray (Diamond) and Srs Carroll McDonald and Maureen Crick (Golden). Celebrants at the Jubilee Mass were Fr Peter Jones osa (nephew of Sr Maureen) and Marist Father Ron Nissen. Also celebrating her Golden Jubilee this year, our Congregation Leader, Sr Grace Ellul, was remembered during the Mass.
