As the archivist for the province, I've been waiting eagerly for our new Heritage Center to be complete. The estimated date it would be finished by was May 2020, but various delays came up, especially in our COVID reality. Now it's almost time to move in! The new archive and exhibit will be in the Madonna Welcome Center in Livonia, Michigan, where we Felicians have a convent and university.
Here are some photos to celebrate!
At the groundbreaking that began construction, our provincial minister at the time, Sister Mary Christopher Moore helped start the digging.

The crowd at the groundbreaking. We were happy to have the tent. It was pouring rain that day!
The framing of the building is going up. It's really taking shape!
