AlterDominicus Posted December 2, 2007 Posted December 2, 2007 I just now got home from the sisters retreat. Sr Joseph Andrew had a rough day on Friday; she triped walking over a railroad track and fractured her upper arm! She is in a bit of pain but we saw her at mass this morning and she is OK and still her same cheerful self. Please pray for a fast mend so she can have her arm back! The break was hairline but up high near the shoulder so there is just a splint and a sling, no cast. It is Blue with a big yellow "M" on it which she says is for "Mary"! She is wearing it under her habit however so the poor dear will be needing help to dress herself for some time. You know how hard it will be for her to let someone else do the care-taking. At any rate we all signed a spiritual bouquet (promises of rosaries said for her) and we missed her at the retreat on Saturday. [color="#4169E1"][size=7]I think we can pull a 10 Rosary Prayer off for Sister.[/size][[/color]

(literally) Although I did get to have mom write out my homework for me.

Faustina Posted December 3, 2007 Posted December 3, 2007 Sr. Joseph Andrew will be in my prayers and actually, is ALWAYS anyway. Such an amazing, innovative and superb visionary! An imitation of Mary herself! May her congregation be blessed abundantly with many vocations!
