Dear Friends,
“I still consider myself a missionary.
My vocation, like that of every Christian,
is to be a missionary, to proclaim the Gospel wherever one is.”
(Pope Leo XIV—words in a Vatican News Interview)
With all that is transpiring in our world, we are blessed to have a Pope who will always be a missionary. He reminds us that we are also missionaries and that our world needs to hear the Word of God—the Word of Love.
Through the quality of our relationships with both people and the Earth, we strive to be true witnesses of the Risen Christ, “especially to those whose faith life or human dignity is threatened.” (CSA Mission Statement) Together with you, may we have the courage to offer hope where there is despair, to give comfort to those in sorrow, and to foster peace in our divided world.
Our world needs all of us to be the presence of Christ and to radiate the love of Christ so others will believe, hope, and assist with the transformation of all that is. Thank you for being graced companions on this sacred journey of life.
Thank you.
Sisters Sharon Pollnow, Peg Spindler, Madeline Gianforte, and Lael Niblick
CSA’s General Council, 2022-2026
