Nunsuch Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 You'll recall that I posted in this thread about Sister Charlotte Walby, IHM, who was 106 years old. Well, dear Charlotte died last Thursday, after experiencing nearly 88 years of religious life (more, if you count her postulancy). She died peacefully, after a wonderful life.

Luigi Posted April 9, 2023 Author Share Posted April 9, 2023 One of the Trappist monks at Gethsemani in Kentucky recently turned 100. He still working, too! https://monks.org/br-frederic-celebrates-100-years/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted April 21, 2023 Author Share Posted April 21, 2023 This showed up in my Facebook feed. The oldest religious in the US is a Dominican sister of the Amityville, NY congregation - 110! https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=624333703068412&set=a.569552138546569 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luigi Posted May 27, 2023 Author Share Posted May 27, 2023 The Sparkill Dominican sisters recently published the list of their 2023 jubilarians. I have an aunt in the congregation. But the big news is that one of their sisters is celebrating her 90th jubilee this year - the first in the congregation's history. And another is celebrating her 85th jubilee - only the second in the congregation's history (the first was Sr. Mary Ninetieth). https://sparkill.org/news/sparkill-dominicans-celebrate-an-unprecedented-jubilee/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
