N. C. — On the [cast of the Assumption of our Blessed Mother, Auguk 15, the Sisters of Mercy of Belmont. N. C., celebrated the silver jubilee of Rev. Mother Ra phael and of Sisters Mary Magda lene and Philomena. The occasion marked the 25th anniversary of the making of religious vows by these Sisters. The decorations throughout the con vent for this event portrayed the spirit of the celebration. The color scheme of blue and silver, significant of 25 years of loyal service to the Divine Master, was tastefully work ed out. Festoons of silver bells and tinsel lent an air of joyousness to the occasion. The celebration began on the eve of the festival when Fr. Charles Kastner. O. S. B., of Belmont Ab bey, presented a religious picture in the auditorium of the academy. At nine o’clock on the morning of the feast, solemn High Mass was cele brated in the convent chapel by Rev. Michael Mclnerny with Rev. Al phonse Buss as deacon and Rev. Cuthbert Allen as sub-dcacon. The address was delivered by Rt. Rev. Abbot Vincent Taylor, O. S. B., D. D., who was attended in the- sanctuary by Rev. Charles Kastner and Rev. Benedict Rettger, all of Belmont Ab bey. Father Anthony Burns acted as master of ceremonies. Other priests in the sanctuary were Father Mau- rus Buckheit, also of Belmont Abbey, and Father Patrick Gallagher of Raleigh, N. C. The chapel was beautifully deco rated with gladiolus, roses and ferns. The three jubilarians knelt before decorated prie-dieux outside the sanctuary and, just before the last gospel, renewed the vows which they had made before the same altar 25 years ago. Ablx>t Vincent’s address was im pressive and appropriate. He spoke of the work accomplished by the Sis terhoods in general, of what their service meant to the church, and then dwelt particularly upon the Mercy Order of Belmont. He reviewed the struggle of the little band since the first days in the state, how. despite the sterility of the soil and the scarc ity of the laborers, they had suc ceeded to the extent that today they conduct two large hospitals, a splen did orphanage which cares for over 200 of God’s little ones, a beautiful academy at Belmont besides many schools throughout the state. This happy result. Abbot Vincent went on to state, is a proof of God’s blessing on the community. At seven-thirty in the evening. Miss Hammond Radio Speaker at Augusta AUGUSTA.
