Carondelet Legacy Family Project
|
|
One of the greatest gifts that our alumnae can give us is the opportunity to inspire future generations of their family.
Carondelet's Legacy is evident in the number of families with multiple generations of Carondelet students and alumnae.

A Prayer in the Time of a Pandemic
|
|
May we who are merely inconvenienced remember those whose lives are at stake.
May we who have no risk factors remember those most vulnerable.
May we who have the luxury of working from home remember those who must choose between preserving their health or making their rent.
May we who have the flexibility to care for our children when their schools close remember those who have no options.
May we who have to cancel our trips remember those who have no safe place to go.
May we who are losing our margin money in the tumult of the economic market remember those who have no margin at all.
May we who settle in for a quarantine at home remember those who have no home.
As fear grips our country, let us choose love.
During this time when we cannot physically wrap our arms around each other, let us yet find ways to be the loving embrace of God to our neighbors.
AMEN

We’re excited to share that
our next evening speaker is futurist Jody Medich
—who will share her insights on how emerging technologies have the potential to turn us all into superhumans. Since we can’t all be together in person,
we’ve arranged to bring Jody to your living room via a live, online webinar.
The webinar starts at 7 PM on Tuesday, April 21, and we will wrap-up Q&A by 8:30 PM.
Jody’s presentation could not be more timely. As we spend more time at home, technology is helping us stay connected, supporting new ways to work and learn, and allowing us to share our creativity. It’s fascinating to imagine how artificial intelligence, robots, virtual reality, and other new technologies can help us be better prepared for future challenges like this—giving us the very real potential to be superhumans.
The event is free, but
please register online
so we can send you a link to the webinar and technical instructions a few days before the event.
