Following the words of Jesus and the example of Saint Anthony the Great,
we, the Antonine Sisters, leave everything behind to follow God, our sole treasure.
The life that we received from God we give back to Him through service and devotion.
Like Mary, the first consecrated woman, we live joyfully to proclaim the greatness of the Lord
who is the Way, the Truth and the Life.

Visit to Carey, OH

In the Maronite Church, the month of May is dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. On Sunday May 20, we decided to go visit the Basilica and National Shrine of Our Lady of Consolation in Carey, Ohio. It was certainly a beautiful day as we attended liturgy, savored a good lunch then enjoyed walking out in the shrine's park, meditating on the stations of the cross. On the way back we prayed the rosary together asking the Mother of God for her intercession for us and for all those who are in need of prayers.                                   Click here for the Litany of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

Congratulations!

On Friday May 18, our community celebrated Sister Nancy's graduation. Sister Nancy received her BA from Ursuline College, Cleveland. Her family traveled all the way from lebanon to join in the celebration. Even Jude, her nine-months-old nephew, was clapping for sister Nancy and smiling proudly for her achievement!
