Open Hands, Open Hearts: 2009-2010 Volunteers Commissioned
On August 29, 2009, Bon Secours Volunteer Ministry celebrated the commissioning of its 2009-2010 volunteers.  At a liturgy celebrated by Fr. John Donahue, S.J. our current volunteers, Nadya, Laura, Rose, Sarah, and Kathleen, received a commissioning blessing from the Congregation of Bon Secours.  Friends and supporters of the Bon Secours Volunteer Ministry community shared in the blessing by making the sign of the cross on the volunteers’ palms.  A great sign of their service to each other and to the larger community, the blessing of the volunteers’ open hands reminded all to support the volunteers throughout this year of opening hearts.
