IHM Sisters celebrate 175 years By Calley Duffey MONROE – Utilizing technology unimaginable in 1845, more than 600 sisters and associates from the three distinct branches of the Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary gathered virtually over two days and across the world to recognize their shared roots and celebrate the IHM's 175th anniversary. The celebration, which was delayed a year by COVID-19, included IHMs from Monroe, Scranton, Pa. and Immaculata, Pa. and the Oblate Sisters of Providence (OSPs) of Baltimore. The days involved both pre-recorded video, live presentations and small breakout groups, all handled with the help of Nix Conference & Meeting Management. With more than three decades of experience in the meeting planning industry, Nix handled the planning, communications and on-site detail of coordinating participants from across United States and Mexico, Puerto Rico Africa and Peru.
Sisters calling for Weiser’s removal as chair of the Michigan Republican Party The Daily Telegram As women of faith whose congregations have served the people of Michigan – men and women, Republican and Democratic – for 1,084 collective years, we were deeply troubled and alarmed to hear University of Michigan Regent and Michigan Republican Party Chairman Ron Weiser refer to our state’s top three elected women officials as “witches” that the GOP’s “job now is to soften up” so that “when we have good candidates to run against them that they are ready for the burning at the stake.” This language is not only abhorrent on its face, it poses a real and present danger to the three elected leaders and to all women in Michigan, giving bullies and abusers public license to vent their anger and vitriol on the bodies of real women in our cities, neighborhoods and State Capitol. One in three Michigan families are already impacted by domestic violence and over 100 domestic violence-related murders occur in Michigan every year, according to Haven, a national nonprofit promoting violence-free homes and communities.
