This week we welcomed the newest member of the Archives team. Sister Patricia Endres has recently been missioned to the Emmitsburg Campus where she’ll be dividing her time between the Provincial Archives and Seton Heritage Ministries. She has spent her community life as a teacher, most recently in Martinsburg, WV. Welcome, Sister Patricia!

This week our blog and Facebook page are quiet because three of our staff (Dee Gallo, Carole Prietto, and Nik Henle) are in Washington attending the Society of American Archivists meeting, taking advantage of the many opportunities for networking and learning. Dee is an officer in both the Archivists of Religious Collections Section of SAA and the incoming president of The Archivists of Congregations of Women Religious. Carole has served on the Host Committee for this year’s meeting, and she coordinated a service project, volunteering at DC Central Kitchen. Seen in the photo are Carole and the other archivists who participated in the service project.
