Last January we said goodbye to the community of Benedictine sisters who had made Tucson their home for the last 82 years. Not only did we lose this amazing group of women, their chapel, the most beautiful and prayerful worship space in southern Arizona, was sold to a private developer.
A group of lay people who used to attend the 5pm daily mass at the convent are trying to organize mass to be celebrated at another church at the same time. So far they’ve found a parish that will accommodate them and have found priests to say mass for the next two months. The sisters have even sent them a chalice from their convent in Clyde, MO.
Please pray for this community of faithful Catholics as they put the Benedictine vows of stability and continued daily conversion into action. Although it doesn’t fit my work schedule and I won’t be able to participate, my prayers are with them. It’s good to see the lay faithful getting motivated.
