What a tremendous schedule these Sisters keep! They put me to shame, but of course, they are much younger. I probably ran circles around them when I was their age. It has been a great experience. I spent last week with the Sister in charge of Campus Ministries. She has a ready smile and is very kind. She and I prepared a retreat for 6th graders. There are 3 classes of each grade (6-A, B, C)with about 30 students in each. We had their retreat on a Thursday during the day. She also had a high school retreat on Saturday--all day long. I was invited to attend a "Promoter of Vocations" workshop instead of helping Sister Karla. It was wonderful.
Today I stayed with the English teacher. She is not a religious Sister but she has been teaching English for 12 years. Her accent is very strong and she tends to pronouce some of the words as she knows best. For example, they were studying pets. She said, "dog" and they were to say the word "puppy" but instead they pronounced it "poopy"...oops! She figured that the u was long instead of short. Oh, boy! Nice lady, though. I stayed with her for all of her 5 fifty minute classes. How exhausting!
Just wanted to share with you!
