This June, dedicated to the Sacred Heart, you are invited to assist the Sister Adorers of the Royal Heart, the feminine branch of the Institute of Christ the King. As many of you know, in January 2019, the novitiate of the Sister Adorers moved to Naples, Italy, into a 16th century convent originally founded by the Dominicans. This large and beautiful convent is now where our novices have the grace of receiving their religious formation. However, their new home is in dire need of urgent repairs and your assistance would be greatly appreciated. Additional information with photos is posted in the vestibules. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
