Photos of Tour Day of Enfield

Each year, Our Lady of Hope Province has a gathering for all the sisters in North America. Those who can't come are able to stream it live on the internet. This year, about 230 sisters met in Connecticut, during the weekend of October 19-21.

As it was the Enfield area's turn to host this meeting, we invited the sisters to come a day early for a tour of the Enfield property. This included the central convent building and the various ministries on campus.


Two buses carrying more than 100 sisters from across the province came. 


The sisters gathering in anticipation!



Time to eat! The menu included different salads (chicken, tuna, etc.) and some yummy sides.


Sisters had the opportunity to visit the ministries on the property. Here some of them are at the Felician Adult Day Center.


Themed cakes! This one has a picture of the statue of St. Felix with children that is on the property.


                             This cake's picture is of St. Francis of Assisi with animals.

                                                  Happy to see each other!


Every sister got a gift bag containing a bottle of water, a bag of chips, a pen, and other goodies.

The tour of the building included a tour of the Heritage Center materials and the archives.
