0 Years of Religious Life
We congratulate Brother Michael Perez SSS on his 60th anniversary of religious profession of vows on March 19, 2026. Brother Michael is well known within the Congregation of the Blessed Sacrament (SSS) because he was the first religious brother in the congregation to serve as a novice director and student director, not only for service to the United States but also for candidates across the English-speaking world. Brother Michael continues to teach in formation when we have postulants, and more recently, last week, he conducted a Zoom conference with our two English-speaking novices in Scotland.
New Icon Made for Saint Ann Province
In the spirit of the 125th-anniversary remembrances, and in response to the request for a new image of our beloved Good Saint Ann, the provincial council commissioned a new Eucharistic image of Saint Ann by Joan Steinman of our Corpus Christi Parish in Houston, Texas. Over the winter, Joan took suggestions to gather the Holy Family for their afternoon chores to have an “afternoon snack” with fresh bread!
