A Missioning Ceremony for Jacqueline Rapp, Director of the Office of Charity Connections, was held in St. Vincent Church at Nazareth on Monday during Mass. The Office of Charity Connections is a new office created in response to conversations and discernment throughout the Western Province.
This position involves inviting, inspiring, and engaging individuals and groups with the charism of the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth. The director serves as connector and as weaver, helping people discern the best way to engage with the Sisters, whether through vowed membership, SCN Associates, Companions of Charity, House of Hospitality, or volunteering.
Jacqui is delighted to begin working with the Sisters of Charity of Nazareth. Her background includes parish pastoral and catechetical work, canon law, reflective practice, and most recently, spiritual direction. She completed her spiritual direction training at Nazareth Retreat Center and has developed a deep appreciation for the Sisters she has met and the SCN charism. You can watch the ceremony below:
