While the report focuses on your generous inspirational giving that supports our life and mission, it is difficult to present such a report without reflecting on this past year. Certainly, it has been a year like no other. At this time last year, we were looking forward to various celebrations of the 175th year since our founding in 1845. Needless to say, they did not happen. Instead, like our brothers and sisters throughout the world, we found ourselves face-to-face with two pandemics — COVID and that of systemic racism. For months, we were sheltering in place, staying home to stay safe. It is a practice that our residents in IHM Senior Living Community (IHM SLC) continue in order to keep everyone safe and healthy. The powerhouse of prayer within IHM SLC was enhanced by the prayer ministry of our sisters. Each week, we held a Zoom call with sisters and associates not living at the senior living community during which we became aware of other efforts to create a sense of community. These efforts are shared in an article in this report. Our staff within IHM SLC have worked hard to ensure the health of our residents. Unfortunately, we have had some COVID cases among our staff and several residents. During this past year, we suffered the loss of life of three sisters and an associate, due to COVID. We have been saddened by the loss of these lives and those of hundreds of thousands of our brothers and sisters. Following the death of George Floyd, we renewed our efforts to deal with systemic racism. We did so within our personal lives, our communal life and by working with others to eliminate systemic racism within our Church and society. You will notice in each issue of ihmpact that we are inviting the voice of others to share their insights and experiences as we try to understand the experience of racism and deal with our complicity at times when confronted with this reality. We creatively celebrated the jubilees of 18 of our sisters in July. Sisters and associates were invited to share video greetings that were combined and shown to the jubilarians at a luncheon with small groups at the tables. We also completed the renovation of a wing of our facility to create 19 apartments for lay residents who desire to join our Life Plan Community. To this point, 13 residents moved into 11 apartments and are looking forward to the time when they can join the rest of the residents for liturgies and other activities. In Detroit, the Marygrove Conservancy continues to grow with the construction of a state-of-the-art early childhood center. The IHM commitment to education and to the city of Detroit is coming alive in new ways. Through these months, your inspirational giving enabled our life and mission to continue. There was no “shut-down” in your giving, as evidenced by your responses during this past year to our annual appeals. They gave evidence of your commitment and belief in the IHM mission and presence in our world. Theresa Maxis, IHM, and Louis Florent Gillet, CSsR, our co-founders, faced some challenging times during the initial years. Let us rely on their gifts of courage and openness to the Spirit as we face the challenges of today. Thank you for your inspirational giving and for your continued prayerful support. Know that we continue to hold you and your families in our prayers. Gratefully, Mary Jane Herb, IHM President Annual Report, 2019 – 2020 1 Keeping In Community During Quarantine The following are highlights of how some lifted spirits and handled the “new normal” of this pandemic; from making masks, to adjusting in ministry and finding creative ways to keep in touch. While each of us experienced the pandemic in different ways, efforts to keep a sense of community abounded. Our shared experience during these unprecedented times has brought our community closer. MASKED WONDER Sister Gretchen Webb and her certified therapy dog, Gretel, were set to begin a new job together in March. The coronavirus pandemic derailed that plan. One evening on the news, she saw a report regarding the burgeoning need for face masks. She had sewing experience, a sewing machine and material on-hand. She bought a supply of elastic and turned to the internet for patterns and a tutorial. “The first one took me more than two hours to make,” she recalls. “I got faster and finished 45 masks over the weekend, which I dropped off at IHM Senior Living Community (IHM SLC).” People who heard about her effort began donating material. Sister Gretchen has made masks for friends and family throughout the continental United States and Puerto Rico — almost 800 and counting. She now makes masks in bulk, working on 35-40 at one time. Supplying IHM SLC has been a priority; she’s delivered approximately 350 for use by residents and employees and plans to continue making masks in anticipation of volunteers returning. “Orders kept coming in” she laughs, “so I kept sewing. It’s been nice to do something during this pandemic that’s helpful.” TOP: Sister Gretchen Webb and her certified therapy dog, Gretel; ABOVE: Sister Kathy Onderbeke A SPECIAL WAY TO REMEMBER LOST LIVES Early on in the pandemic, Sister Kathy Onderbeke rather to ‘tune in’ and be inspired to do our part began an installation of doves at Ss.

Most people think hold this reality and connect to the presence of the Spirit of chaplains as people who just go into a room and pray within and among us. It is a way not to ‘tune out’ but with a patient and, at some hospitals, that may be the case. 2 Annual Report, 2019 – 2020 Sister Anne Mamienski; Sister Sharon Holland; Sister Marge Fogarty Since its founding by the Grey Nuns in 1855 in the middle even as we are unable to gather and celebrate together of cholera and malaria epidemics, chaplains are a vital in person.” Peggy Thompson, IHM Associate – New York part of the medical staff at St. Vincent’s, working alongside nurses, doctors and other medical personnel throughout “Living at a distance, I really appreciated our virtual the hospital.

Among major points they made about the 110-page second draft, which is their current working docu- ment, were the following: • The document's controversial section on the morality of nuclear deterrence needs to be developed.
