This year there were 5 CJ/IBVM sisters coming to Rome to attend the course: Bernadette Lepcha IBVM, Chetana Gregory CJ and Pratima Tudu CJ all from India, Rosaline Mganga IBVM from Kenya and Selvi Adaikalam IBVM from Australia. They arrived in a cold January, ready to start their course at the begin- ning of February. The first weeks were spent getting to know one another, the sisters in the CJ Generalate, where they were all hosted, and the sisters in Casa Loreto. Everything was going fast: in the formators’ course there were 44 reli- gious from 26 different countries and the exchanges were extremely interesting and enriching. Life in the community at the CJ Generalate and the mentoring of both the CJ and IBVM leadership teams was em- powering. In addition to all this, on the 2nd of February, the feast of the Presenta- tion of the Lord, they were able to participate in the Pope’s general au- From left: Chetana, Selvi, Bernadette, Pratima dience for Consecrated people… Nothing could be better! Sitting: Rosaline Then the news about Covid 19 and its spread across Italy started getting more and more serious and on March 9 a national lockdown was de- clared. All five sisters were worried about their families and their communi- ties at home and about the people in Italy. They were also very confused about what would be happening to the activities already sched- uled.Luckily the course was quickly reorganized with lectures online. Selvi says “This period of lockdown was such a great experience for me to get to know a lot more about myself and about living in a community and sharing so much with other sisters, realizing how much we have in common, no matter if we belong to IBVM or to CJ”. “The Course of Formators’ Training Course was enriching and self- transforming but one thing I missed was listening and learning from the sharing of the experienced formators who were there in the course, because the online course did not give this opportunity.” says Berna- dette. With Jane Livesey CJ and Noelle Corscadden IBVM Pratma adds she was particularly happy about the communion she felt with her family and the entire world because being able to go slower and find more time for prayer and meditation led to a state of deeper connection which was enriching to her. Chetana recalls that hearing of the loss of humanity due to Covid 19 was a great concern for her. But, on the other hand, it was a quiet time in which to bond with self, God, community and nature. It also offered an opportunity to appreciate the true gift of digital technology to carry on with the online classes and benefit much from it, although they missed celebrating the differences of interculturality in person. Rosaline says she is grateful to God and her leaders for giving her the opportunity to do this course which has helped her go deeper into her life and to be affirmed and challenged. The community experience with the CJs was rich especially as we move towards union; the community In the chapel at the CJ was very supportive especially during lockdown. Generalate All of them are now spending their last days in Italy visiting holy places like the Sanctuary of Loreto the Basilica of Saint Antony of Padua and more, waiting for the restrictive measures for lockdown to change and allow them to get back home. 3 PRESENTATION MANOR AND COVID Gordon Perrault, Executive Director of Presentation Manor (Scarborough, Ontario, Canada) follows all the directives from the Min- istry of Health. He also believes that his first priority is the health and well-being of the two hundred residents and of the staff. He is always pro-active so—doors locked — no visitors— no non-essential workers no leaving the property and temperatures taken twice a day. As a result, no resident at our Retirement Home contracted the Virus. However, we did have a few setbacks. After one set of testing a P.S.W. tested positive for the Virus — so complete lockdown for 14 days for all of us no leaving your room day or night, meals delivered to you, tem- PRESENTATION MANOR peratures taken, mail delivered to your door and needed medication given.

  • Mary Ward's Women
    Archival Display Celebrating Loreto’s 400 Years Presented at Loreto College Ballarat November 2009 Mary Ward’s Women 400 Years of the Institute of the Blessed Virgin Mary In 2009-2011 the Loreto Sisters celebrate 400 years since Mary Ward began her work. They rejoice in and honour the vision, courage and commitment of their founder and her legacy of sisters and schools on every continent, hundreds of thousands of students past and present, countless volunteers, colleagues and friends across the globe; and social justice and education missions that serve the vulnerable, disadvantaged and voiceless around the world. Her followers today work in every continent and try to live by her ideals, promoting the gifts of women in "freedom, justice and sincerity", in a way of life that places emphasis on reflection and action, to serve the gospel "wherever the need is greatest". Mary Ward (1585-1645), was an Englishwoman from Yorkshire who founded the Loreto Sisters. She was a progressive and visionary woman of her time who believed “women in time to come would do much”. She believed that women and men were of equal intellect - a brave assertion at the time - and that they should be educated equally. Mary Ward pioneered a new form of religious life for women (without the constraints of the traditional cloister) – a female version of the Jesuits. Together with her followers she set up schools across England and Europe. By remaining faithful to her insights, she was condemned, those who joined her were disbanded and the Institute suppressed. Despite persecution and scandals about her way of religious life her vision and values live on today – in Australia and around the world.

  • Laudato Si’- a Way of Life
    Laudato Si’- A way of life Mary Ward Sisters South Asia Celebrate The 5th Anniversary of Laudato Si' Week from 16-24 May 2020. “Let’s take care of creation, a gift of our creater God. Let’s celebrate Laudato Si’ Week together.” MERGER MILESTONE: A RATIONALE We are humbled at this opportunity bestowed by the Almighty. Truly, His ways are beyond our comprehension. These last few days have taught us that 'With God, all things are possible.' This is veritably, a major Merger Milestone, that has brought together students, teachers and Sisters of both the congregations of Mary Ward. What better way than to celebrate Laudato Si Week, than to do so in fellowship with each other and the rest of the creation. The celebration of the 5th Anniversary of the Laudato Si Week could not have been more apt this year, despite all the impediments and inexplicable phenomena, natural and otherwise. The Pope's passionate call must be paid heed to, so that we set a purpose to the pangs of protecting this world. These uncertain times, with cyclones, frequent earthquakes, floods and the current pandemic, have only given an impetus to the efforts in this collaborative effort to quell the ecological crises. This was possible only by merging and mirroring the myriad of ideas for a sustainable future. This week was an insightful and introspective journey for all the participants, the JPIC National and Zonal coordinators, both congregations of Mary Ward and Tarumitra. We have learnt that each one of us has a key role to play, like cogs in a wheel, in the future of this world, and to maintain its integrity.

Qualitative and quantitative data, case studies, historical analyses and more theoretical, analytical and philosophical material are welcomed. The journal aims to assist in the human formation and exploration of ideas of those who feel inspired by a charism, its nature and purpose. In this context, charism is seen as a gift to an individual, in our case Marcellin Champagnat, who in turn inspires a movement of people, often internationally, across generations. Such an educational charism encourages people to gather, to share faith, to explore meaning, to display generosity of spirit and to propose a way forward for education, particularly of the less advantaged.

  • An Historical Analysis of the Contribution of Two Women's
    They did what they were asked to do: An historical analysis of the contribution of two women’s religious institutes within the educational and social development of the city of Ballarat, with particular reference to the period 1950-1980. Submitted by Heather O’Connor, T.P.T.C, B. Arts, M.Ed Studies. A thesis submitted in total fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of PhD. School of Arts and Social Sciences (NSW) Faculty of Arts and Sciences Australian Catholic University November, 2010 Statement of sources This thesis contains no material published elsewhere or extracted in whole or in part from a thesis by which I have qualified for or been awarded another degree or diploma. No other person’s work has been used without due acknowledgment in the main text of the thesis. This thesis has not been submitted for the award of any degree or diploma in any other tertiary institution. All research procedures in the thesis received the approval of the relevant Ethics/Safety Committees. i ABSTRACT This thesis covers the period 1950-1980, chosen for the significance of two major events which affected the apostolic lives of the women religious under study: the Second Vatican Council (1962-1965), and the progressive introduction of state aid to Catholic schools, culminating in the policies of the Whitlam government (1972-1975) which entrenched bi- partisan political commitment to funding non-government schools. It also represents the period during which governments of all persuasions became more involved in the operations of non-government agencies, which directly impacted on services provided by the churches and the women religious under study, not least by imposing strict conditions of accountability for funding.

One of the Sisters East Africa referred to the fact that there were three of them, like the three members of the Holy Family in their house. This led to some Reactions to sharing about the Holy House of Loreto, Ancona, Italy. That Vatican II 6 house is said to have been the original house of Jesus, Mary England and Joseph.
