In preparation for the Jubilee celebration of our diocesan priests, consecrated men and women, a group of sisters from various congregations together with some friends gather at the Co-Cathedral of St Theresa on Friday evening to decorate the tables for the reception tomorrow. The expectant number is over 500 peoples for the Mass and reception.
Sr. Laura Brown, a member of the Daughters of St Paul, is celebrating her Silver Jubilee. Some Pauline Cooperators and friends will be there to celebrate with her.
The students at St. Francis School made a Thousand Origami Cranes. 千羽鶴, Senbazuru (Thousand origami Cranes) is a group of one thousand origami paper cranes held together by strings.
An ancient Japanese believe that anyone who folds a thousand origami cranes will have a long life or recovery from illness or injury. The crane in Japan is one of the mystical or holy creatures (others include the dragon and the tortoise), and is said to live for a thousand years. In Asia, it is commonly said that folding 1000 paper origami cranes makes a person's wish come true. This makes them popular gifts for special friends and family.
