On the evening of Friday, August 13, the Teresian Sisters gathered in the chapel
of the Formation House for a special prayer vigil for novice Sr. Margaret Ann
Mire.
They prayed with and for Sr. Margaret Ann as she prepared to make her
first profession of vows the following day. After the prayer vigil, the sisters
serenaded
Sr. Margaret Ann as she went to her room and discovered it had been
decorated by the sisters.
