There was a special tribute for a sister’s more than 60 years of service to the Diocese of Brooklyn: The Holy Spirit Institute for Service and Leadership — a program designed to train active parishioners to serve as missionary disciples — honored Sister Alice Michael during its graduation ceremony at St. Nicholas of Tolentine Church in Jamaica, Queens on May 23.
Sister Michael has been working within the diocese for more than 60 years, with 40 of those years dedicated to evangelization and catechesis.
She is also known as a great spotter of talent, often identifying parishioners with leadership potential and encouraging them to apply to the Holy Spirit Institute.
The program presented Sister Alice with the Missionary Discipleship Award in recognition of her lifelong commitment to evangelization and the proclamation of the Gospel.
