We would like to thank Sister Mary Jane Wilson for the wonderful design on our 35th associate anniversary pin and bookmark. May they be a reminder to all of us that together we do indeed “Journey in Mission.” The pin and bookmarks are on the way if you haven’t already received them.

Introduction: As Associates renew their Associate commitment and Sisters their vows on this Feast of the Visitation; we unite in prayer for the August General Chapter. And we rejoice in the gift of thirty-five years of the CND Associate Relationship. Our reflection today calls attention to how Elizabeth can deepen our understanding of Visitation.
Refrain: O dearest Mother and Foundress, we seek not comfort or wealth
We only ask that in your name, God may be greatly loved and oh, so faithfully served.
