“What do we see this morning as Sr. Speranza celebrates her 75th Anniversary as an MSC? A milestone – a marvelous example. A friend – a great grandmother in the faith. A humble servant of God – an intrepid Missionary. A woman called and consecrated by God to give her heart to God, to love God and to care lovingly for all the people who would come into her life. Speranza made Christ the whole meaning of her life – following him with her whole heart, trying to conform her whole life to his, through her life-long commitment. So my friends, what do we see today? Light in her eyes. A smile on her face and joy in her life of service and presence.”

- excerpts from Sr. Joan McGlinchey’s remarks
