• Sister Karam receives a blessing from the Duchesne community.
    Many Religious of the Sacred Heart (RSCJ) have called the campus of Duchesne Academy of the Sacred Heart home since its founding in 1960. Sharon Karam, RSCJ, has resided in “the White House” on the school’s grounds since 1996. On Friday, January 17, many gathered to celebrate Sister Karam as she prepares to move to the RSCJ community in New Orleans this spring.
  • The Religious of the Sacred Heart continue to share the Society's mission to discover and reveal God's love through connection and collaboration across generations, cultures, and borders, sponsorship of the Network of Sacred Heart Schools, and continued partnerships with organizations and other women’s religious congregations.
  • Sophie’s Well, a center for Sacred Heart spirituality, hosted a hiking retreat in Halifax, Nova Scotia this summer. Led by Mary Frohlich, RSCJ, the retreat brought together a group of twelve women from their 20s to their 70s for a week of praying and hiking together.
  • Claire Castaing, RSCJ (right), stands with current Superior General Barbara Dawson, RSCJ,  and lights Sophie's candle. This candle was at Sophie’s bedside at the time of her death; and the Society has kept it since then. Each new superior general, at the time of her election, lights this candle for a brief moment.
