July 2025 E-gram

This month of July has found a spirit of
celebration for us–cherishing God’s goodness and provident care. The graphic, designed by Sr. Leanne Hubbard, was used for our 2025 Jubilee. It reveals the song in our hearts and the flame of hope burning in our spirits. United in one heart, one hope, one mission, it is our privilege to share God’s love with those
entrusted to our care. And we humbly recognize that we depend on you, our partners, who join us with prayer and financial support. It is our prayer that you may be filled with a song in your heart and the flame of hope burning in your spirit.
