Sr. Karen Pourby’s journey to becoming a Sister of St. Francis of Philadelphia followed a somewhat circuitous route. She grew up in Binghamton, New York. After graduating from college, she entered the Angelic Sisters of St. Paul, an Italian congregation. “I left the Angelics and entered the Sisters of St. Francis. It was one of the hardest things I had to do. Yet I feel this is where God wants me to be. I have no regrets.”

Happy #FlagDay! Flag Day in the United States falls on June 14th each year. On June 14th, 1777 the Second Continental Congress adopted the United States flag.facebook.com/USairforce/vid…
Flag Day was first celebrated in 1877 to mark the 100th anniversary of the national symbol. In 1885, Wisconsin school teacher B.J. Cigrand started a grassroots campaign that began with his students celebrating Flag Day. It ended with him promoting his idea to national newspapers and making public addresses on the matter. A small number of people in the Midwest and Northeast began to celebrate Flag Day. After nearly 30 years of state and local celebrations, President Woodrow Wilson made Flag Day official in 1916.
