Kanuga 2023
Thankful for all the hard work that went into this successful event.
And thank you to all who came out!
We had a wonderful Fall assembly and retreat this year.
At Kanuga we had approximately 130 women to attend throughout Province IV.
Tennessee was well represented this year. We had women from East, Middle and West.
(Fun Fact: Tennessee has three separate dioceses.)
The Prayer of St. Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
And it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
Amen.
