Welcome to Guests.
It is my privilege to welcome all to this
wonderful Celebration -
50 years of life, lived in love with the God of
Love in the Society of the Sacred Heart, of Sister Anne Breen.
Reflecting about this occasion in relation to
to-day's Feast, Mary's Assumption, and reading the quote inside the
back page of your leaflet, I thought about what might be one thing that we
experience of Mary, now, in to-day's world, and that Jesus, in his life on
earth would have experienced, that would describe what Anne has been to us
here at Baradene. Immediately the word NURTURER came to my mind.
Mary nurtured the life of Jesus ... Mary nurtures our lives of faith and growth in Christ.
Anne is a wonderful nurturer of our lives here
at Baradene, spiritually and physically.
Let us join together now to celebrate the
fruitful life of Sister Anne Breen over the last 50 years in the Society of
the Sacred Heart.
