Anamaria, 86 years old, skilled photogapher, is also a computer expert and prepares christmas/event cards, course materials and has written up her memories....she writes to prisoners, mends their bibles, does the community accounts, chronicles, etc and reminds us of our retreat days and whatever. 

Anamaria is an expert in crochet and arts and crafts of all types and collaborates with our classes, workshops for local organizations. Being wheelchair-bound  does not seem to stop her too much,  though she has had a painful tumour on her shoulder for   quite a while now.  Pastpupils communicate constantly with her and Augustina. Not to mention calls and visits from the people in Sanchez where the sisters lived and visited over a period of twelve years.  Cheerful, full of hope...she is a living witness of how to grow old with a smile.

Flora, the fourth member of our community had Alzeimers  for a long time and after a long period of  care she went to the Lord R.I.P. just this February. We all contributed to writing an account of her life in spanish and english.

The nearest community of our congregation is in Victoria. Recently a new bridge has been built from Rosario to Victoria, spanning the Parana river and all its tributaries - 75 km in length. What used to be a 5 hour journey triangle is now a 1 hour journey. That means that Hortensia, Matilde and Antonia (from Victoria) can visit us more often. We share vegetables, eggs, honey, cheese, fruit, reflections, films and we play a lot of cards and games at night when they come over by bus.
