Dear Family Members,
I was away last week at an important meeting, but I’m sure the Little Sister in your loved one’s unit contacted you. Since my last letter, a Resident on the third floor and a volunteer both tested positive and are doing a time of isolation. We did not have to isolate the whole facility, but only the Resident involved and we kept the other Residents quarantined on the unit with the ability to leave their rooms to attend Mass and go to the dining room since they are fully vaccinated. Of course, this meant more testing.
Lent began yesterday and here at Queen of Peace, our efforts will be to find ways to supernaturalize the restrictions that the pandemic imposes, such as keeping a 6-foot distance from others in the corridor and offering it in reparation for the distance Jesus had to walk on Calvary laden with a Cross; offering in patience having to use the designated elevator, and being only three people at a time in it, in union with what Jesus had to endure from the ridicule of His executioners. I am sure that there will be many other sacrifices that come our way, and we pray most especially for world peace and all those suffering in the war-torn parts of our world.
We ask Our Lady, Queen of Peace, to bring healing and peace to all. As we continue to pray that this pandemic will soon come to an end, I ask God to bless you all. Keep safe!
Sincerely,
Sister Joseph Caroline
