Opening Reflection<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Guided by Divine Providence<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Dear Friends and Benefactors,<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

As we reflect upon another year, we are reminded of the many ways in which Divine Providence continues to guide the work of the Consoling Sisters.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

From the arrival of new pre-postulants in Phoenix to journeys of faith, apostolic activities, and the beginnings of a future Novitiate in Colorado, this past year has brought many blessings and opportunities to serve Our Lord.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

In this special edition, we invite you to share in some of these moments of grace and to see how the Sacred Heart continues to guide the Sisters, one step at a time.<\/p>\n\t\t

\u201cProvidence is guiding us in these decisions step by step.\u201d<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Mission Story<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

A Year of Memories and Acts of Love<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\"\"\/\t\t\t\t\t

Phoenix, October 4, 2026<\/strong>
Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi<\/em><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Another year has gone by, full of memories and of acts of love for Our Lord.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

New Beginnings in Phoenix<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The past year was a great change for our Sisters here in Phoenix, because from five Sisters we stepped up to seven Sisters and ten pre-postulants. They started their first steps in the religious life under the burning fire of the sun of Phoenix and of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. They helped us in various apostolic activities such as recreation at school and Sunday Catechism, and they tried successfully to learn Italian in a completely English-speaking world.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Thanks to many prayers, they all received their visas, which allowed them to go to Italy this past June to continue their formation.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

On the 10th of August of this year, another eleven pre-postulants joined us here in Phoenix for a new adventure.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\"\"\/\t\t\t\t\t

A Future Novitiate in Denver<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Last January, Fr. Du Chalard, Mother Maria Rita, and Sr. Maria Veronica paid us a visit to decide where in the United States a Novitiate should be opened. Since in Narni the vocations are coming from all over the world, the Novitiate there is more than full.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

The chosen place to locate the new Novitiate is Denver, Colorado, where, thanks to the generosity of a family, a big piece of land was donated. Now it remains only to be built\u2026 Where exactly will it be? How big? Providence is guiding us in these decisions step by step.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\"\"\/\t\t\t\t\t

The land in Colorado near St. Isidore's where the future Novitiate will be built.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

A Journey to Italy<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

This past June, ten Children of Mary came with us to Italy for ten days. They earned their tickets with bake sales, and thus had the opportunity to see the Novitiate in person, to get to know the Sisters and Novices, to help with the preparations and be present at the first profession of eighteen novices, and to visit Rome and Assisi.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

It was a great event for them. They all want to go back, and we are sure it will bring forth everlasting fruits for the good of their souls.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Graces Along the Way<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

During the summer, Providence gave us the great gift to participate with almost the whole of the Congregation at the episcopal Consecrations in \u00c9c\u00f4ne. What a ceremony! How rich in symbolism and beautiful, and how many graces!<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

At our return from Italy, we had the grace to visit Fr. Nichols in his last days of earthly pilgrimage, to pray and sing for him, and to assist him in his last moments. May his soul rest in peace, and may God reward him for all the good he has done in his priestly life.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Right after Fr. Nichols had passed away, we organized the two-day camp for the little girls here in the priory and then the ten-day camp for the older girls in Flagstaff.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Serving Wherever Providence Leads<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

School, the Children of Mary, and Sunday Catechism fill our weeks, which are full of adventures and unforeseen events, occasions to console the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, and to offer acts of virtue for the sanctification of priests.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Not many churches are blessed to have Sisters, so some priests asked us to go and visit their schools or priories, to give the faithful and young ladies an opportunity to have some personal contact with Religious.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Therefore, we visited Florida and Syracuse, where we participated in the Auriesville pilgrimage, as well as Los Gatos and San Jose. In Post Falls we organized a First Communion Recollection Day for the children, and in August we joined in the Cabrini pilgrimage.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

We are so thankful for the priests, who work so hard for the salvation of souls, and who give us the honor to participate in this work of mercy.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Continue Praying for Us<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Continue praying for us, please, so that we always persist in serving Our Lord faithfully and contribute to restoring the Reign of Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

May God bless you and grant you a holy month of the Rosary.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Please Pray With Us<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

As the Sisters continue their work of formation and apostolate, we ask you to keep them in your prayers, especially the young women beginning their journey in religious life.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

May the Sacred Heart of Jesus strengthen them in their vocations, guide the work of the Congregation, and bless all those who labor for the salvation of souls.<\/p>\n\t\t

Future Novitiate Update<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

A New Home for Future Vocations<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t

As vocations continue to grow, the Novitiate in Narni, Italy, is already filled beyond its intended capacity.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

In response to this blessing, the Sisters have chosen the Denver area as the location for a future Novitiate in the United States.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

Through the generosity of a family who donated land near St. Isidore's Church and Priory, the first important step has already been taken.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

There are still many decisions ahead, and as Sister writes in her letter, \u201cProvidence is guiding us in these decisions step by step.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t

We remain deeply grateful for your prayers and generosity as this work continues.<\/p>\n\t\t
