Life is Short Eat Dessert First!

Ice cream is one of my favorite dessert items, I could eat it every day but I enjoy it most when surrounded by family and friends.  Often it is in the sharing of dessert that some of the best stories of life are shared. I can remember attending an ice cream social in high school with the School Sisters of Notre Dame and being amazed at how happy and free-spirited the sisters were, we laughed for hours as we enjoyed our treats.

Over the Summer months various campuses will host Old Fashioned Ice Cream Socials compete with music, activities for families, open houses, conversations, laughter, and of course ICE CREAM! I have found the ice cream socials a great way to interact with the School Sisters. Individuals young and old get to see the sisters laughing and reuniting with former students, families and friends.

Have you had a similar opportunity to share with a religious? What was the experience like?
