| Archbishop Miller blesses convent chapel |
Archbishop J. Michael Miller, CSB, extended his thanks to the sisters for agreeing to take over for the Franciscan Sisters of the Atonement who left after 85 years of ministry to the poor.
The nuns are in the midst of determining how their ministry will unfold through discussions with local charitable organizations and the archdiocese.
They will, said superior Sister Damascene, continue to pay visits throughout the neighbourhood, something they started to do some years ago.
