2022 US Province Assembly
“The Mercy of God” was the theme of the August 16, 2022 US Province Assembly. In light of the disappearance of Fr. Anthony Kluckman, SCJ, on July 21, the original three-day gathering was adjusted to one, as was its focus. “How do we understand God’s love, God’s mercy in a situation like this,” said Sr. Dianne Bergant, the morning presenter.
On Tuesday afternoon, SCJs took part in a “Spiritual Walk” dedicated to Fr. Anthony. For some SCJs, this involved an actual walk; divided into small groups SCJs searched areas near Sacred Heart at Monastery Lake for clues regarding Fr. Anthony’s disappearance. The areas were those suggested by the Franklin Police Department, which is leading the investigation. Others remained in prayer, holding Adoration while the search took place.
The assembly opened Monday evening with First Professions and closed Tuesday with the Jubilee celebrations. Photos from these events are in separate albums.
