On July 11, 2014 we opened our Golden Jubilee Year of our
founding in 1964. On July 10th
the foundress present for the celebration shared memories of the founding and
of the early days at OLM. The founding
community consisted of the superior, M. Columba and 12 sisters. They came from Mount St. Mary’s Abbey in
Wrentham, MA. Our sisters, Columba and
Augustine and Peter have gone home to God .
Nine foundresses were here to celebrate.
Sr. Rosemary, a foundress both here and at our foundation in Norway was
unable to attend.

gifts and shared our gratitude with the foundresses.
At 10:30 the Mass for the feast of St.
Benedict was celebrated.
Many of the
monks from New Melleray joined us, along with guests from various houses in our
order.
