December 2024
Dear Friends,
The night I was elected General Sister Servant, I awoke at 2 a.m. in a panic, wondering how I could ever complete the Motherhouse campaign. “How can Jesus ask me to accomplish something so overwhelming?”
Today, as I write these words, my heart overflows with gratitude, and I am filled with awe at the goodness of our God. On December 5, we will dedicate our very first Motherhouse—a sacred space where our community can grow, pray, and serve together in unity. This day is nothing short of a miracle, a testament to the generosity and faithfulness of everyone who has supported our mission
When we first dreamed of a place to call our Motherhouse, it felt like a distant hope— something almost too grand to imagine. And yet, here we are, just weeks away from welcoming sisters, friends, and supporters into a space that has been prayed into existence. This dream would never have come to fruition without the loving support of so many people who have stood beside us, believed in our mission, and given so generously. “For nothing will be impossible with God” (Luke 1:37). This milestone is indeed proof of God’s faithfulness and His work in the hearts of our supporters.
The Motherhouse is more than a building; it is a symbol of our roots taking hold. As SOLT Sisters, we are called to be missionaries who go to the ends of the earth to bring others into deeper union with the Trinity. Yet, to go far, we must have a place to return and be grounded.
This Motherhouse is where our sisters can come home, renew their foundation in Christ, and strengthen our bonds as sisters. Gratitude fills my heart as I think of all who have made this dream possible. Each donation, prayer, and word of encouragement has been a precious gift that has brought us to this moment.
You have been God’s hands, His voice, and His heart to us. Thank you!
In Christ,
Sr. Mary Aloysius Kim, SOLT
SOLT General Sister Servant
