HollyDolly Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 Wish i had a scanner or whatever.I have some old family photos of my great aunt ,Sister Mary Generose in both the original and modified habit of the School Sisters of Notre Dame that i wish I could post for everyone. She's buried in their convent cemetery in Elm Grove,Wisconsin.I don't know if I have any photos of my late cousin,Sister John Edna,who belonged to the Sisters of Charity of Nazerath,KY. I think there is one of her wearing the modified habit.They used to wear a black habit with a shoulder cape, and a white bonnet if I recall.
Veritas Posted June 28, 2007 Posted June 28, 2007 (edited) + Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles Priory of Our Lady of Ephesus [img]http://bp1.blogger.com/_Wf2ZQDD0RkM/RoE7R20_8FI/AAAAAAAAACg/RamDJWfz4CU/s1600-h/sbenedict.jpg[/img] About this picture: The latest addition to the Priory is an antique 6' 2'' statue of St. Benedict found in an antique store. This plaster and hemp statue, originally formed right on a faux marble wooden pedestal, was cut off below the feet. We are giving him a humble place of honor until we can build an appropriate niche for him at the new monastery. He needs to be up high; as you can see he is meant to be looking down lovingly on his daughters. Edited June 28, 2007 by Veritas

Their foundress was Mother Catherine Spaulding. sr betsy Edited June 28, 2007 by sr_betsy

Our veil might look nicer but I bet theirs is cooler! :-(
