Jack, about 14, walked into Sister’s religion class one afternoon: “I’ve never been inside a church before,” he told Sister. “But, I’ve been thinking. There has to be something bigger than us. Everybody is into technology, but there has to be more to life than that, and I want to find out what it is!”
God’s grace was working in him, and we didn’t have to look for this teen hungering for God—he looked for Sister!
So many people, of all ages, are hungering for God, and they might not even know it. We find so many, and it’s a privilege to help them to know and love the Lord.
Teens, adults, children—they all need to be helped to know and love Jesus. We want to show them that the truth is lovable. They need to be taught how to pray and how to keep growing in their faith all their lives!

“Our Blessed Lord looks to us for the hearts of His little ones. “God grant that we may make the way straight for many of them, that Jesus may come and go among them freely and that their way to Him may be sure and simple.”
Mother Mary Teresa Tallon, Foundress
Our community has been blessed with five new postulants who want to love and serve God as Parish Visitors of Mary Immaculate. There are two postulants here in the US, two in the Philippines, and one in Nigeria. Please pray that many more will come!
This month we are opening a new mission convent in Warren, Ohio, where several Sisters served for a few months last year. Also, in October the four Sisters who were on a three-month temporary mission to Ireland returned to the U.S., after a fruitful apostolate there. There is so much need in so many places!
May God bless you and guide you in your discernment of His will for your life.
The Parish Visitor Sisters, who are praying for you!
