Norbertine sisters

The above photo comes from the latest issue (PDF) of First Fruits, the newsletter of the Norbertine Canonesses of the Bethlehem Priory of St. Joseph in Tehachapi, Calif. It depicts several of the sisters assembling wreathes as part of the order’s annual fundraiser. Shown second from the right is Annie Huguelet (’11).

Shortly before her graduation in May, Miss Huguelet offered the following reflection about her vocation in an address to the College’s Board of Governors:

“With graduation on the horizon, I have my eyes set on the eagles, turned Heavenward, and I plan to continue the education I have received here at Thomas Aquinas College by pursuing the contemplative life. I will do then what I have learned to do here, which is to raise my mind and my heart up to God.”

How beautiful it is to see her joyfully living out that vocation today!
