SOLT Elections for General Sister's Council

General Sister Servant: The SOLT Sister's chapter has agreed to the request of Bishop Mulvey to extend the term of Sr Anne Marie Walsh, SOLT, for two more years in order to make application for pontifical approval of the community.  It should be noted that SOLT is approved by the Holy Father as a Society of Apostolic Life of diocesan rite.  They would be applying to be of pontifical rite.  The distinction is that rather than being under a local diocese and bishop protector, they would be directly answerable to Rome.


Councillors to the General Sister Servant:


1st Assistant: Sr Megan Mary Thibodeau, SOLT
2nd Councillor: Sr Elieen Mary Doherty, SOLT
3rd Councillor: Sr Margaret Mary Loehr, SOLT
