Honoring Day 1 Community

Honoring Day 1 Community

By Tammy Townsend Denny, TI Executive Director
​
Day 1 Community, Houston, Texas was honored at the Houston Day of Prayer on January 28. This community was chartered on November 4, 1965 by our founder Msgr. Elwood Voss as the 56th Theresian community. They are among the few remaining communities from the early days of Theresians. Mary Clare Albrecht is the only remaining original member of the community.

I would like to share with you a short video that was created to honor Day 1.

As you watch the video, think about who were among the original Theresians in your region, district, or community? Do you know their stories?

If you are interested in creating a recorded history of Theresians in your area, please let the TI office know. We would be happy to work with you on simply ways to preserve our legacy.
