New Leadership Team for S.S.M.O.

Hello, everyone,
 
Your prayers have been sincerely appreciated as the Sisters have been engaged in a week of Chapter events to set the direction for the next 5 years and to elect new leadership.
 
The SSMO Commitment Statement which will help provide a focus and direction for the Congregation for the next five years is:
 
Responding to Jesus’ mandate to love one another
and prompted by our charism,
we commit to using our gifts, skills and resources
to work for justice
as we journey in solidarity with the vulnerable, particularly the immigrant,
and as we care for God’s creation through sustainable practices.
 
The four Sisters who will serve as leaders of the SSMO Congregation (and, per our Ministries Corp Articles/Bylaws, as Members of the Min Corp) are:
 
Sr. Charlene Herinckx – Superior General
Sr. Catherine Hertel – Vicar General
Sr. Krista vonBorstel – General Councilor
Sr. Joyce Barsotti – General Councilor
 
Let us all praise God for the blessings bestowed on all of us….
 
 
Sr. Adele Marie Altenhofen
President, SSMO Ministries
