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.

Trip to Niagara Falls

On Saturday May 29, 2010, our Antonine Sisters Community in North Jackson, OH went on a trip to Niagara Falls, NY. We enjoyed the sunshine and warm weather, as well as the amazing falls and beautiful scenery all around. To live the day to the full, we boarded the "Maid of the Mist" boat and inhaled the refreshing mist of the roaring falls, then went down the cave to soak in the cool water. It felt like being baptized all over again! After a long fun-filled day, we came back home happy and energized as we got a chance to rest from our work and studies.

NCDC Workshop

Our Antonine community was invited to participate in the Fundamentals and More workshop, a program of the National Catholic Development Conference. The 3-day workshop, which was held in Darien, Illinois, is specifically designed for small religious institutes to help them launch a successful development program to further their missions. Sister Celine Nohra, who attended the workshop from our community, along with 25 other participants from different religious orders, greatly benefited from the workshop sessions and the expertise and kindness of the presenters. May God bless all the individuals involved in this sacred ministry.
