Gerrie Naughton Golden Jubilee Celebration
On September 5th, 2009 ARISE staff joyfully celebrated their founders 50th Golden Jubilee. Sr. Gerrie Naughton was honored with a special mass and a wonderful reception. Mercy Corporated Presence families joined together to give a special thanks and recognition to Sr. Gerrie for all the years of heartful dedication and constant empowerment. "We feel honored to have the opportunity to celebrate this special day!" The day was full of surprises for Gerrie. Traditional Mariachis delighted us with their contagious music. Gerrie's sister Mary and brother Joe joined us on this special day.
God was good with us and we feel that he gave us the opportunity to celebrate and honor our founder Sr. Gerrie before he called her to his presence. We are happy to share with you some of the pictures from the Golden Jubilee Celebration!
