Meeting with Archbishop Sartain

Meeting with Archbishop Sartain

By Sr. Jo-Anne Miller C.S.J.P.


On November 21, Sisters Chris Still, OSF; Judy Ryan, SNJM; and Jo-Anne Miller, CSJP (who is a member of the NRVC board) met with Archbishop J. Peter Sartain at the Seattle Archdiocesan chancery to share with him the activities and challenges of the Archdiocese of Seattle Religious Vocation Committee.

We had a wonderful visit! The archbishop was most gracious and supportive and spoke with us about everything we shared. We prepared a packet of information for him explaining our activities, programs, and history, and telling about NRVC resources. We also offered him our thoughts on vocation prayers of the faithful (to include consecrated life), reflections by religious at Sunday liturgies, and the possibility of assistance from the archdiocese with  publicity.
