On Sunday, September
12, 2004, the community of Holy Cross Church celebrated their Patronal
Feast Day and the Golden Jubilee of Sister Patricia Pieper, SNDdeN. A
procession of gratitude followed a brief introduction by Sister Pat.
The procession highlighted Sister's Pat's remembering of the many events
and persons of her life. A photo of Sister Pat's father represented her
birth family, while her Notre Dame family was represented by St. Julie's
statute. A globe represented all of her worldwide friendships while an
ASH engraving from the Open Shelter reminded of her counseling and
chaplaincy. Also included were a "White Board" and book (study and
teaching), constitutions and African art (formation), and a pictorial
directory of Holy Cross Parish ( Parish Ministry).
Following the
combined 10 a.m. Mass, friends, family, and parishioners gathered
outside for a buffet brunch in honor of Sister Pat and The Exaltation of
the Holy Cross. |
