Ifirst came across Patrick Stewart as captain Jean-Luc & also in X-Men. Yes Iβm la bit of a #Trekkie. He was an incredible actor whoβs talent I have enjoyed watching over the years. My lasting memory is him sitting in the captainβs chair of the Enterprise saying βMake it soβ.

Along with people around the world we pray for Pope Leo, his healing and peace. We pray also for all undergoing surgery at this time. π #Prayer
Dear friends, during some recent medical examinations, the doctors found a small, localized nodule in my lung. It was detected at a very early stage and is well-localized. The doctors believe that it is best to intervene, so, following their advice, I have decided to undergo surgery to remove it. The operation is already scheduled to take place in the coming days. I thank you for your spiritual closeness and entrust myself to your prayers.
Such a joy to be @houseofprayerem for a couple of days this week. A wonderful welcoming place with residential retreats and days. christian-retreat.org/our-prβ¦

Good #Sunday morning everyone!
In #TodaysHeaven, what happens when 3 #NunsOfTwitter who've known each other for 30+ years come together (and no, we didn't become nuns on the run!)...

Pray for Bishop Timothy in his move to @BrentwoodRC. A good friend to our Sisters in @RCBirmingham and we look forward to welcoming him to Brentwood.
"I am grateful for all those who have shaped my life, faith and priestly ministry in the Archdiocese of Birmingham over many years." Today, Saturday, we celebrate the appointment of Bishop Timothy Menezes as the new Bishop of Brentwood @BrentwoodRC.
Good to catch up with @Silvanarscj & @anne_m_dunne with 90 years of vowed life between us. #RelgiousLife
Almost 32 years since we first met on the inter-congregational novices course...
Approx 30 years since each of us made #vows...
Still friends, still #ReligiousTogether
Lovely to spend time with @KnittingNun and @anne_m_dunne ππβ€οΈ

After yesterday. I do think Hod is teaching me patience. This morning I am now stuck in our lift! That will teach me to use the stairs! π
My entertainment this evening has been watching a delivery that is due. The status has been telling me, βYouβre the next stopβ, for at least the last half hour. And I have watched the green dot move nearer and then further away. π Is God helping me practice my patience?

Today as Sisters of Mercy we celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Mercy and the start of the 200th Anniversary of the opening of the first House of Mercy by Catherine McAuley in Dublin #OTD 1827. In gratitude for all has been and still to come. π #ReligiousLife
It is such a joy to be back on the beautiful Island of Iona. Beautiful fresh air and dry. #Iona
All finished and given to the recipient. #Crafts #crossstitch
Iβm doing a little #crossstitch alongside my knitting. Not done any for a while and am grateful for the magnifying glass. I not appreciate what my mother meant when she said she could no longer thread a fine needle!
Congratulations to the students and staff at @StMichaels_SE16 on todayβs results. And thank you for sharing the cupcakes with our Sisters in Bermondsey.

A heatwave isnβt really the weather to start knitting a cosy blanket with this lovely pompom yarn. To counteract the cosiness the fan is also on full blast! #knitting.
