Spreading a little cheer

We had our second annual GodTeens Christmas caroling party on Sunday afternoon. We filled up a bus with high schoolers in Santa hats & full of cookies for some pretty enthusiastic singing!

Our group made spiritual bouquets for the retired priests & the sisters that we visited.

It was nicest to meet each one of them & chat a bit. Quite a few characters there!

The Pinks joined right along with us. It was so interesting to hear the many different countries that they were born in & have travelled to while in the convent. For at least half of the GodTeens it was their first time meeting a cloistered nun & I think they were pleasantly surprised!

We made a visit in their perpetual adoration chapel & then headed back for a pizza party of our own.There was a good number of kids & we were lucky to have the majority be our sophomores! We had a lot of fun with them.

It was such a nice afternoon. I hope we get to do it again next year!
