Sisters of Notre Dame

Travel Journal

A familiar face greets us at the driveway of the SND Motherhouse—we say a quick hello to Mary as we pass by her statue near the front entrance.
Setting up for the podcast, we laugh with our guests, Sister Teresita and Sister Mary Ann, about using the headsets as if to call a football game – “There’s Sister at the 30, the 20, the 10!”
Today’s podcast--Praying with the Sisters. After prayer, people in the chatroom ask the sisters about how they discerned God’s calling in their own lives and what they love about being SND sisters.
Packing up after podcast—no problem with mobile gear! What a difference from our test runs, when we lugged full-size equipment to podcast with the Racine Dominicans and with IHMs in Monroe, Mich., and Immaculata, Penn.

Chatroom rolling + nuns sharing = the best!

Podcast Guest Nuns

Sister Teresita Richards, SND, and Sister Mary Ann Culpert, SND, were among some of our first Motherhouse Road Trip guests!
