Day 17: Holy AND Frustrating: Both Parts Are True
We’ve gotten good at holding opposite truths in our tired hands during the pandemic. The “and” of it all is both holy and frustrating.
Tracey Horan is a Sister of Providence of Saint Mary-of-the-Woods, Indiana and associate director of education and advocacy for the Kino Border Initiative in Nogales, Sonora and Arizona, where she has lived and worked since 2019. Sister Tracey has ministered with Latinx migrant communities in a variety of contexts for over a decade.

Sister Tracey recently celebrated 7 years as a Sister and is preparing to profess her perpetual vows this year.
We’ve gotten good at holding opposite truths in our tired hands during the pandemic. The “and” of it all is both holy and frustrating.
