On Saturday, May 23, 2026, we joyfully celebrated the Perpetual Profession of Sr. Emily Sandoval, FMI, at Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception Parish in Dayton, Ohio. The carefully prepared celebration was especially meaningful, as it is within this parish community that Sr. Emily carries out her pastoral ministry.
It was a day marked by a genuine spirit of family. She was accompanied by the Marianist Sisters, her family members, the local parishioners who welcomed her with such affection, and a large representation of the Marianist Family, who joined in prayer both in person and through the live-streamed celebration.
Congratulations, Sr. Emily! Thank you for saying “Yes” to following Jesus in alliance with Mary.
