It is with sadness that we say goodbye to Sister Mary-Grace of the congregation of the Daughters of Divine Love (DDL) in Inverness. Sister Mary-Grace is well known for her work with candidates preparing for confirmation and the young people in Inverness and Beauly. She joins the DDL community in Crook, near Durham.
Sister Maryjane is moving to the congregation in Birmingham while Sister(Dr) Vivian Mariet Okolie has been offered a job in Raigmore.
We welcome two new sisters, Mary Vivian and Winifred. Sr Winifred is already well known in Beauly. Sr Mary Vivian
(Ukah) will take over as the Inverness congregation’s Superior.

This love is self-sacrificing love.
