In this moment of time and in this place

We are made one with those

who have gone before us

Having sown the seed of our harvesting

That lights our way with an enduring vision

A vision engendered in prayer fortified

by the spirit.

 

A vision which sees within the immediacy

of the day’s tasks

The handing on of a tradition of excellence

in Mercy

Ordered not only to magnify the splendor

of the Truth

Whatever its demands

Wherever it may lead

But also to enkindle the desires of the heart

To embrace the ways of Mercy and Justice.

The same Spirit moving us all the while

from action to contemplation

To that Sabbath Rest in the spirit

wherein knowledge becomes wisdom

and discipline the order of love.

 

Thus a pathway is laid open to us

The far horizon beckons us beyond

these shores.

Let us then fare forward

with faith as our compass

and love as our lodestar.

Written by Sister Eloise and Jean Tobin on the occasion of the Inauguration of M. Therese Antone, RSM, sixth president of Salve Regina University. 

Each Monday and Wednesday, SALVEtoday will provide a prayer of reflection for the University community to reflect upon during this time of remote living and learning. #salvesgotthis #wellnesswednesdays
