On Tuesday 2nd August our General Chapter elected Barbara Dawson RSCJ, currently Provincial of United States-Canada, as our next Superior General for a period of eight years. She will take up her new role in December. Until then, our outgoing Superior General, Kathy Conan remains in office.
Barbara's first task was to discern who to ask to work with her as General Councillors. On Sunday 7th August they were announced.
You can read more on our international website's dedicated page, where daily updates from the Chapter are being posted. You can also view a short video of the post-election celebration.
We assure Barbara of our prayer and unwavering support, and continue to pray for Kathy, and for USC Province, whose loss of a Provincial is everyone's gain.
