Dear Sister Barbara:
I hope the enclosed rewrite meets the requirements for the Common Novitiate the
Federation of the Sisters of Saint Joseph are desirous of establishing. If I've missed the
mark, please don't hesitate to draft out what I need to say. I'm most anxious to be helpful
in this effort.
It was indeed a pleasure to meet you last summer at Saint Joseph's Center. The
Tipton Sisters are a magnificent group of women. Their Electoral Chapter is slated to
take place on March 16t\ so they are preparing for discernment.

If there is anything more I need to do, please let me know.

With my best wishes, I am
Sincerely yours,

.~'*
