Visit to the Maryknoll Sisters’ Motherhouse New York
10 Pines Bridge Road, Maryknoll , NY 10545-0311
Many of our former Maryknoll Sister teachers are now residing at the Maryknoll Sisters’ Motherhouse in New York. The new committee has planned a visit to the Motherhouse during the Labor Day weekend. Not only will you have an understanding of where the Maryknoll Sisters come from, you will also have the opportunity to visit the museum that displays mementos collected over the years by the Sisters during their mission. Being Marynollers, it will be great to find the roots of our Maryknoll education. As we all age, it is a blessing to be able to still see some our teachers again and the more they will be very happy to see us. They devoted their lives to the students and we are truly children to them. Sister Joan Delaney and Sister Ann Carol Brielmaier from Monrovia are being invited to come with us as well. Several Sisters, among them Sister Maryam (Sister Marylou Teufel) and Sister Teresa Leung from the New York Motherhouse have already written to us welcoming our visit.
