It's wonderful to hear about the NY KCLC commitment ceremony that you've planned for Sunday, April 24! I would certainly want to join you to celebrate this day, especially since Morristown is just a two-hour drive from Wernersville, and only 45 minutes from my mother's house in New Brunswick. But as Ed will also tell you in his reply, the first in-person ExCo meeting with the whole expanded group will be in Portland that very same weekend; and unfortunately my own flight back will not arrive at Newark Airport until Monday morning.

I'm also sending this reply to all the ExCo members, so that we might try to find a way in our planning for mid-day in Portland on Sunday, even some likely early departures for the Portland airport, for at least some of us to send our greetings and join you in spirit at least by way of a phone call as you begin the day's activities in Morristown...

Greetings!

NY KCLC is having our annual one day retreat/commitment ceremony on April 24 (Sunday) at Loyola House of Retreats, NJ from 9am to 5pm. 

We have 34 members making their commitment (1 permanent, 12 temporary, 21 renewal). They have been preparing/discerning since January and have responded generously to their CLC vocation. 

We send our invitation for you to join us on this blessed day, as well as ask for your prayers.

Thank you. 

E. Christina Kim,

NY KCLC Chair
