On Saturday January 16, our Antonine Sisters Community in North Jackson, OH celebrated the Feast of its patron saint: Saint Anthony the Great. We started the day with the morning prayer of the Divine Office, followed by a spiritual reflection and discussion led by Fr. Rodolphe Wakim, from Our Lady of Victory Parish in Pittsburgh. After taking time for personal prayer and meditation, we gathered back to end our spiritual retreat with the Divine liturgy during which we renewed our vows.
