Sister Joan Foley, OP

2022 – 63 Years a Sister

Prayer Ministry

Pray for those in nursing homes and the homebound.

“I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, And I will glorify your name forever, for great is your steadfast love toward me.”

~ Psalm 86:12-13

Once more I have the opportunity to express gratitude for all the many blessings received.

Falling and becoming incapacitated made me realize how truly fortunate I was to receive such loving care. It was a lesson that prepared me more fully to visit the hospitalized and the homebound.

Also, crocheting and knitting to keep others warm is likewise a blessing. It is a meditative, calming experience for which I am grateful.

I ask for the continued privilege to Praise, to Bless, and to give Thanks for Dominican life with my Sisters, Associates, Family, and Friends.
