Congratulations and thanks to all of the Concordia sisters for sharing Marcia with us! Her presidential address was a brilliant invitation into a new era in religious life. What you won’t hear from her is that she received an extended and rousing standing ovation from everyone present. I was so proud of her, and all of the Concordia community who continue to give rise to the cutting edge! Ad Astra per Aspera!
Amazing. Resonated with me on so many levels, in so many ways. “…the challenge of faith exercised by hope.”
Thank you Sr. Marcia.
A wonderful, motivational and inspirational, presentation leading all into a new frontier of exploration and hope.
