Global Sisters Report is an international publication.

We share with you a couple of quotes particular

by Nancy Sylvester

Contemplate This – We are being asked to imagine ourselves joining hands and becoming a circle around our planet and through space and time. Conscious of who we are at our best, we take part in a mutual exchange of wisdom and protection.

Meaningful Christmas Gift Giving

December 10, 2020 by Holy Name Monastery Leave a Comment

We found a wonderful resource for Christmas gifts we thought you would find particularly meaningful.  The Ave Maria Press has made possible a special giving program to help Catholic organizations suffering considerable losses in donations due to Covid.  You can shop for your loved ones AND Ave Maria will donate 30% to a charity you hold dear.  There is something for every age in the Ave Maria Press’s offerings.  Just a few samples you might want to give to a certain someone at Christmas:

Simply go to: Avemariapress.com/Fundraiser

Use code: HOLYNAME

30% of your purchase amount is donated to the Benedictine Sisters of Florida

(You must use our code typed in all caps.)

 

The Sisters also receive donations from Amazon Smile. Any purchases you make, they will give a percentage of their profits to the Benedictine Sisters of Florida.
