10 Sr. Magdalena Rybak explained, adding the members of the Association help spread the love and joy of Nazareth even beyond the Sisters’ reach, among their friends, neighbors, family members, and of course, in their own homes. Though the events of recent years — namely a global pandemic — unfortunately interrupted much of the momentum and activity of the Association of the Holy Family, Sr. Magdalena sees a bright future for the Association of the Holy Family (AHF) in the United States as they begin again to meet in person. “There is a genuine gratitude and pride among our Associates to welcome our new members and to get to know them,” Sr. Magdalena explained. “It’s all about community and trying to carry on the charism,” said Michael D’Onofrio, an Associate in Long Island, NY, for more than 15 years. Michael recently attended the World Meeting of Families in Rome as a U.S. Delegate for the AHF and credited the Sisters and his involvement in the Association with helping him explore his faith. “They helped me to grow spiritually… [and] I just want to carry on their mission.” Today, there are more than 700 Associates of the Holy Family worldwide with many more in the discernment process. The talents and gifts they bring with their love of Nazareth are immeasurable. NOTE: If you are interested in becoming an Associate of the Holy Family or learning more, please contact Sr. Magdalena Rybak at mrybak@nazarethcsfn.org
