A,1i,l'l,l'ld71l Secmzzz' A11 imnzz Secrclary lt is truly an honor to be a member of the Children of Mary Sodality of Georgetown Visita- tion Convent, which is the most important and rewarding activity in which a student may participate. This year we are entering our one hundredth year of organization, for, although we were defi- nitely established earlier, our first recorded recep- tion of new members is December 8, 1852. In 1867 we became afjfiliated with the Prima Primaria, or Mother Sodality, in Rome, under the title of the Immaculate Conception. We are most fortunate in having as our modera- tor, Sister Mary Agnes, who has helped us to be Mary-like in every action. Proudly assisting her were: Prefect, Jane Groveg Fin! Arrirzant, Har- riet Magoverng Second Arrirtanl. Mary Jo Schmitt, and Secretary, Pat Hall. Jane Grove Harriet Magovern Mary jo Schmitt Patricia Hall The most important project of the Sodality is the hnancing of the education of our priest- brother, Brother Leonard, M.S. S.T. In three years he will be ordained, and how wonderful it is to know that we have helped to train one of Christ's representatives! We also maintain a sanctuary lamp in a west- ern mission church, contribute to the Mission Stamp Exchange and clothing drive, fill stockings for the Red Cross, and dress dolls for the Christ Child Society, spread Catholic literature, and pub- lish the Sodalizy Communique. Our spiritual activities include: The Office, First Friday Stations, the Valentine Heart, the May Ladder and devotions. It is the desire of every Sodalist to imitate Mary's splendid virtues, for we believe that by doing so we will be guided to a richer, fuller life. 62
