Celebrating 125 Years of Lisle Benedictine Sisters of Sacred Heart Monastery

From February 2, 2020 to February 2, 2021, we celebrated and gave, and continue to give, thanks on the occasion of our 125^th anniversary.
Each day of this past celebration year, we shared our story with you. Daily, we featured a short description of one of our sisters near or on the day of her death if deceased, or if living on her birthday. When not featuring a Sister, we shared glimpses of our history or features of our lives that are important to us. Thank you for being part of our journey.
