April is a meaningful month for our Holy Child community.
On April 18, we mark two significant occasions: the anniversary of the death of our foundress, Venerable Cornelia Connelly, and the official launch of the Holy Child Collaborative by the American Province.
The launch will be celebrated through events offered both in person and virtually. For those unable to join us on the 18th, we offer prayer services specifically created for our schools, ministries, and friends so that all can be a part of this important time in the province’s history.
What is the Holy Child Collaborative? The Collaborative grows out of the international Society’s strategic plan—a call to reimagine how we organize ourselves today and into the future, in response to a rapidly changing world. It unites Sisters, lay partners, schools, and ministries in carrying forward Cornelia’s charism and mission, and fosters a shared commitment to revealing God’s love in the world.
Who is part of it? You are. Our Sisters, Associates, heads of schools, teachers, staff, volunteers, friends, and families—all who carry forward our Holy Child mission, spirit, and values.
We are deeply grateful for your partnership as we move together toward the future. Please join us on April 18!
“God has chosen to need women and men in
every age to reveal divine love, to make
known the reality of the Incarnation. “
