We cap off our week of celebration with the reception of Sr. Faustina into the novitiate. Sara, by baptism, receives a new religious name, Sr. Faustina, under the patronage of St. Faustina. Sister Faustina also receives the habit of St. Dominic as she enters deeper into the spirituality of the Dominican Order. This year will be a deeper year of contemplation for Sr. Faustina as she retreats from the world to hone into the voice of the Lord, beckoning her to a life a grace proper to the religious vocation. Let us support her in our prayers as she continues to surrender herself to the Heart of Christ. Thank you, Jesus!
