News & Updates

As we approach Election Day and settle into the season’s shift with Eastern Standard Time, we’re drawn to Jesus’ words in today’s Gospel: “You are not far from the kingdom of God.” In the midst of change and uncertainty, these words call us back to the two great commandments—love of God and love of neighbor. May we listen deeply and carry this message into our lives, moving closer to the kingdom through love, understanding, and action. Written by Sister Colette Didier, SNDdeN, and shared at Mount Notre Dame chapel, this reflection comes with the Sisters' prayers for all during this time.

Discover insights from Dr. Matthew Goldberg's recent UC Center for Public Engagement with Science talk on climate change action, emphasizing the power of personal connections, focused priorities, and thoughtful conversations.

Reflect on the deep connections we share with our loved ones in heaven and the lasting presence of their love and prayers.
