Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth

Trip Date: August 21, 2013
Travel Journal
  • Our very first Motherhouse Road Trip!
  • We drive west across Ohio and Indiana on I-80. Lots of trees, grain fields, and even an occasional goat pasture! Then into Illinois—from miles away we can see the Chicago skyline.
  • Our podcast guests, Sister Michele and Sister Michael Marie, rocked the Ask Sister podcast! Their sisters in the audience encouraged them with smiles and applause.
  • Other stops on the trip: the annual J.S. Paluch Vocation Seminar, an incredible gathering of many different organizations and individuals who work on behalf of vocations.
