Dubuque's Got Sisters:

Join Dubuque-area Sisters for a 24-hour tour of four tri-state area convents to share life through praying, dining, and storytelling. Local transportation will be provided, and there is no fee to attend. 
 
Friday, April 9 at 5 p.m. through Saturday, April 10 at 6 p.m.
 
To register or for more details, email Lou Anglin, BVM, at langlin@bvmcong.org or call her at 563-588-2351.
 
“Dubuque’s Got Sisters!” is sponsored by the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, Dubuque Franciscan Sisters and Sinsinawa (Wisc.) Dominican Sisters. 
 
The evening will begin with supper and overnight hospitality on Friday in Dubuque with the Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. On Saturday, the group will join the Dubuque Franciscans for breakfast, the Sisters of Charity of the Blessed Virgin Mary for lunch, and then journey to Wisconsin for evening prayer and supper with the Sinsinawa Dominicans. “Hospitality—welcoming, nurturing, making comfortable—is key to who BVMs are,” said Sister of Charity Lou Anglin, BVM, who will accompany the tour group. “We are glad to share what has been so generously given us by God.”
