Sr Robyn Wheeler: Behold the handmaid of the Lord

Print

To Sr Robyn Wheeler from Sr Clare on the occasion of her Diamond Jubilee, August 2018:

You chose as your motto Behold the handmaid of the Lord.  May you be comforted with these words of St Francis: “The joy of the Gospel fills the hearts and lives of all those who encounter Jesus… with Chrit, joy is constantly born anew (Evangelii Gaudium).
