(L-R) Sister Alice Condon, Linda Ruszkowski, Sister Grace Shonk
During a trip to South Bend, IN over Christmas break, Director of Campus Ministry Linda Ruszkowski visited Sister Grace Shonk and Sister Alice Condon at the Sisters of the Holy Cross Convent at Saint Mary’s. While there they attended Mass at Our Lady of Loretto, the church attached to the Convent and Halls where the Sisters live. She then joined them for lunch and and a tour of the buildings while they caught up on all the news from the Academy and Saint Mary’s. Mrs. Ruszkowski says, “They both seem fabulous and send their love to the entire Holy Cross community.”
Sister Grace is enjoying her retirement by staying active with ongoing volunteer activities including assisting in the Congregational Archives and Records Office. She recently sent Christmas wishes that were read at an all-school assembly.
