Union: Newfoundland and Labrador’s Sister Helena Murphy Turns 105

On Saturday, September 10, 2016, the congregation celebrated another milestone with Sister Helena Murphy, who turned 105 on September 12.

The celebrations began with liturgy in the motherhouse chapel, at which Sister Helena did a beautiful proclamation of one of the readings. It was followed by a most delicious dinner with her motherhouse community and family members and a delightful reception in the afternoon for sisters, associates and special friends.

It is a joy to celebrate this remarkable woman, her life and love and goodness, and an amazing 105 years of her unfolding journey, part of God’s own dream for her, for the Presentation community, and all of creation.
