Dear Friends,
Thank you for your response to our ZOOM sessions! We are overwhelmed by your willingness to participate with us in this new way! Because of your tremendous and immediate responses to this invitation, we went past our original limit of 15 participants and had to CLOSE all remaining sessions. We want to allow time for all to interact as we would on a normal conference day. We are grateful for your understanding that this was necessary.
Please remember that the day before each session, we will send an email link to you so you can easily join the session. (Sister Marie already verified your participation with a reply email to your registration.) The list of topics may be found toward the bottom of this page as well as on our Program Brochure page. (Just click that link!)
Thank you and God's blessings on each one!

WE OFFER OUR GRATITUDE!
We often have folks contact us by phone or email asking how they can be a help to us...as a way of showing their gratitude for just being a part of our Conference Center "Family!" First of all, we are always so very grateful for a remembrance in your prayers as that is the best support to us in our ministry. Each day at our Morning Prayer, which we pray in common, we specifically ask God's blessings on our "Benefactors"...those who have gifted us with their presence, their time, their prayers and their treasure. If you would like to become one of our monetary Benefactors, we will gratefully accept a donation in any amount toward our ministry. Checks should be made to IHM Conference Center and sent to Sister Marie Gipprich at the Center. We are most grateful for all that you do for us and continue to ask God's blessings on each one and your special intentions! Thank you!

At this time of social upheaval and realization of our country’s inequalities, we will reflect on creating that community of kinship that God might recognize. Topic: “Life in a Sycamore Tree: Zacchaeus’ Story (and Ours)” Date: April 13, 2021 Time: 10:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. Presenter: Sister Marie Gipprich, IHM In the nineteenth chapter of Luke’s gospel we hear the story of Zacchaeus, a man primarily known for climbing a sycamore tree. We know a few other things about him: he was small of stature and he wanted to see Jesus. But who was Zacchaeus—really? In this presentation we will take a closer look at this tax collector-turned-follower-of-Jesus, and find that we all can relate to this man who played host to Jesus in his home. Registration for any of the above ZOOM sessions is by email only to Sr. Marie at the email address below and will be limited to 15 participants. Sister will send a reply verification to your email. You will receive an email link the day before the session so you can easily log in 5 minutes before the session begins! As always, you may reach us anytime by:

As you know, our last photos were taken at our last, wonderful event, our Irish Tea, on March 12th, the day before everything was "shut down." We hope that we will be able to begin anew in 2021! Please be sure to see our Note of Gratitude for your many kindnesses to us! It may be found at the bottom of the Letter from the Director page! (Click the link!) |
