Thank you from the Loreto sisters

Thank You - Dear Bob and Parishioners of St Peter and Paul's Church,
Some days have passed now since I attended the liturgy of farewell you were all so kind enough to arrange, to honour the contribution of the Loreto Sisters, of whom I am one. I was never posted to the parish, but as a long-term resident of Melbourne I have visited your parish community from time to time and I am very conscious of the rich heritage you hold there. I have delighted always in the few liturgies I have attended in your midst. This is my personal word in appreciation and thanks.
Sunday was a very special day. I loved every second of the celebration we shared. It has not been an easy few days since. It has been a week of funerals and farewells - but that did not take from your wonderful offering one bit! I am just sad that Chris Burke, our Province Leader, could not be there on the day as I know she would have appreciated it as so many of us did.
And I loved the plaque!
So, thank you parishioners and thank you Bob. Thank you for having us and for all you have done and do.
May you continue to thrive and be blessed!
