Women Discerning Religious Life

Congratulations and Blessings!

Novice Emmanuel Marie Nick received her new name, the Holy Rule of St. Benedict, and the habit during a beautiful day of prayer and celebration. Novice Emmanuel Marie previously served as the Diocese of Shreveport as Director of Youth Ministry, and we are especially grateful for her “yes” to God’s call.

Please keep Novice Emmanuel Marie in your prayers as she continues formation in religious life!

“What would happen if there were no sisters?

Sisters in the hospitals, sisters in the missions, sisters in the schools. One can’t imagine it! They are the leaven that carry the people of God forward! The Church and the world have need of this testimonyof the love and mercy of God.”

~Pope Francis on the Year of Consecrated Life
