Sr. Briege McKenna "The Healing Power of Jesus in the Sacraments" Women's Conference 2019 Part Two

The theme for the 2019 Diocese of Arlington Women's Conference was "Miracles Do Happen." The sold-out annual women’s conference at St. Joseph Church in Herndon featured Poor Clare Sister Briege McKenna; Congregation of Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception Father Donald Calloway; and Mass celebrated by Bishop Michael F. Burbidge March 2.

Sister McKenna, 73, was born in Ireland and entered the convent at 15. She suffered with rheumatoid arthritis and was transferred to her community in Tampa, Fla. She was miraculously healed at age 24 and says she later received the gift of healing.

Sister McKenna encouraged the attendees not to let fear get in the way of striving for personal holiness. "Just do what Jesus wants you to do," she said. "The Holy Spirit is the grace needed to mediate the Gospel."
