Welcome to Let Love, a podcast with the Sisters of Life. We invite you to join us for conversation, looking at life through the lens of love. You are loved, you are made in God's image, and your life matters. Let's talk about it.

Hi, and welcome back to Let Love Podcast. This is Sister Veritas. Sister Annie Maculay. Sister Lume and Gloria and Sister Mary Grace. And we're

just thrilled to be with you and Sister Lumen, thanks for coming back. Welcome back. I'm so happy.

We missed you. Good to have you. Missed you too.

Four's our new favorite number. Yeah. It's wonderful. It's been so long, even though we had breakfast with you, you know, and live with you, great with you. But it's much cozier with you down here.

That's great. So we're just, yeah, it's fun to be here on, well, yesterday was Passion Sunday. And just kind of like our last Lent podcast before our Easter episode, which is great.

But it's kind of fun because this whole Sunday procession gospel where Jesus enters Jerusalem, just the theme of like welcome.

It's kind of cool.

I like it.

Yeah.

Preparing the way for things.

Yeah.

I know. It reminded me of a story. One of our sisters is coming back. Anyways, as dishes, sometimes we do things that are over the top, but worthily. But we were, one of our sisters were getting back from a 30-day retreat. And so they decided to make a huge sign that was probably like 10 feet wide on a big sheet of paper and they painted, you know,

welcome back from your 30 day and they signed it and all. decided to make a huge sign that was probably like 10 feet wide on a big sheet of paper.

And they painted, you know, welcome back from your 30 day.

And they signed it and all these types of things. And they had this brilliant idea of going to the end of the driveway and holding out the sign so that when she drove up the driveway, she would basically break through the paper.

Which was in theory a great idea.

But unfortunately, the paint ended up getting on to the car

so it was like flop but it was a it was a grand entrance all the same

nice cars never been the same it reminds me too I remember a novitiate sister enough to help me

out with this but it was coming up to pentagos one year and we just wanted to go all out like good

sisters you know so you know we had these crazy ideas of, like, tying all these, like, linen and sheets to the ceiling of a room and, like, ladders. Yeah, that's right, like, sisters on ladders. Like, we just wanted this epic feeling of, like, you know, Holy Spirit's coming. Let's just do everything. I prepare the way as if more sheets means more Holy Spirit. I don't know. The funny thing was when we finally went into the vigil and we, you know, we had some praise and worship and prayers at night. It was hilarious because like mid, you know, deep prayers, like sheets are falling down. Sisters can't see each other. You see half a sister's face. And anyway, it just ended up being a laughing night. But we really wanted to make way for the Holy Spirit.
