The day before our retreat for students preparing for the Sacrament of Confirmation, we witnessed an unusual Alabama event... Snow!  Though we were busy with preparations for the following day, we could not resist going our for a walk in the "winter wonderland" and some of the sisters even made a snowman.

It's not often one gets to grill in the snow, but the confirmandi really enjoy hamburgers!

  Father Richard Tomkosky came all the way from Pennyslvania for the retreat. 

Sisters spent time with the retreatants throughout the day, leading small group discussions and sharing the faith with them by their words and presence.
