Jubilee in the Province Czech Republic

The first Sisters of Mercy of the Holy Cross came to the Czech Republic 150 years ago and began their compassionate work in many places.

The 150 years jubilee was celebrated on Saturday, 14.05.2022 in a simple and at the same time very gracious setting, which also included a presentation on the eventful history of the Province.

The newly appointed Archbishop of Prague, Jan Graubner, was the main celebrant of the festive Holy Mass.

Afterwards there was time to meet the guests, among them the Sisters from the Province of Slovakia. Sr Lucila Zovak, General Councilor and contact person for the Czech Province, took part in the celebration on behalf of the General Leadership.

May God’s blessing continue to accompany the Sisters in the Czech Province and strengthen them in their many responsibilities.
