Mary, Our Sister - to borrow a title from the theologian,
Elizabeth Johnson - is truly one of us, rooted in real life.
She had moments of wonder and moments of frustration, moments of
invitation and moments of understanding, moments of grief and
moments of joy. Her story touches our story in many places
and, therefore, she can understand us. How she handled those
moments shows us how well or how poorly we might handle such
moments.
Come and reflect on some of those moments with Mary, our Sister.
