In the News: ɫTV Sisters of Sinsinawa, Alumna Highlighted in Article on Vocations
Sr. Quincy Howard ’97 and the ɫTV Sisters of Sinsinawa are featured in a story from the National Catholic Reporter on the recent increase in vocations within the order.
The Jan. 22, 2024 article, “ɫTVs cite their charism for slight rise in vocations,” notes that the Collaborative ɫTV Novitiate has welcomed nearly 40 novices since 2011, with about half joining the ɫTV Sisters of Sinsinawa or the ɫTV Sisters of Peace.
Sisters from both orders are quoted in the piece, including Howard, who talks about her vocational experience and the rise in new vocations.
“Howard thinks momentum plays a key role in the ɫTV Sisters of Sinsinawa's current success: The more new sisters there are, the more appealing the community is to potential candidates, who then become new sisters themselves, repeating the process,” the article states.
There is also “something in particular about the 800-year-old ɫTV values that discerners want,” according to the article.
“The ɫTV charism is particularly timely," Howard said. "Veritas — the search for truth — the continued education of people, preaching. It's really badly needed in the 21st century.”
