Redemptoristine Nuns of NY, Inc.

It has been a hard year.    Pandemic, protests (mostly peaceful), uncertainty concerning work and school, elections... No Thanksgiving Parade.   Sadly, we are advised to not gather for The Big Meal and all watch football on one couch on the last Thursday of this month.     
But we can still celebrate Thanksgiving.  There is so much to be grateful for!  Firstly, during November, we celebrate the lives
of all those who have died and joined the Cloud of Witnesses (known saints) and the Communion of Saints (unknown saints: our deceased family, friends...)  in the loving embrace of Jesus and Mary in heaven. 
We thank God for all saints-in-the-making here on earth: our families, friends, co-workers, all our essential workers.   We thank God for all the creativity that has flourished during this time.  Thank God for Zoom!   We thank God for our elected officials who strive to heal divisions, bring about social justice, peace and security in our land.   We thank God for Christ our King who reigns over our beautiful world, and for the gifts of the Holy Spirit who inspires us to keep the faith and journey on with a heart full of hope and joy as we anticipate the coming of Advent.   Thank you, God.

"Life for me is Christ." Phil1:21
