‘Dubuque’s Got Sisters!’ Offers Retreat
Catholic sisters have shared their talents through their mission and ministry over the years and invite you to join them in their journey of calling for justice and peace in our world.
Join Dubuque-area sisters for a one-day retreat to share life through praying, dining, and storytelling at Our Lady of the Mississippi Abbey, Dubuque, Iowa, on Saturday, April 28, 2018, from noon to 8 p.m. There is no fee to attend.
“The Sisters in the Dubuque area collaborate in many ways. One of those ways is offering you an opportunity to pray, talk, and learn together through a ‘Dubuque’s Got Sisters!’ one day retreat,” says Lori Ritz, director of the Office of BVM Life and Mission.
“Dubuque’s Got Sisters!” is sponsored by the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Dubuque Franciscan Sisters, Sinsinawa (Wis.) Dominican Sisters, Trappestines Nuns, and Holy Spirit Sisters.
The Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary are women of steadfast love called to live the mission of Jesus through the core values of freedom, charity, education and justice. For nearly 185 years, BVMs have ministered to those in need in numerous parts of the world.
