Picture of the Week: May 27

Every five years, the Sisters of Providence get their pictures taken for a congregation-wide photo directory. 2011 is one of those lucky years, so this week I began the process with the first batch of SP picture days. We started with some of the sisters who are "home" at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods.

What a delightful experience it's been so far to witness the dignity, humor and grace of these women! Each face I get to capture is chock full of stories of a life full of Providence.

I couldn't pick just one, so here are three. (From the top: Sisters Richard Bussing, Sheila FitzSimons and Adelaide Ortegel)
