Sister Maria Veronica made her First Profession of Vows on the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary of Pompeii, May 8, 2024. Formerly known as Marie Cote, she is the eldest of Rebecca and David Cote’s twelve children and a native of Rhode Island. The Cote family happily supported Sister’s decision to dedicate her life to God and were blessed to witness the Vows of this Bride of Christ at the beautiful age of 21.
Sister came to know the community through the Latin Mass and the Morning Star Camp programs, which she attended as a camper and later as a counselor.
The celebration of Sister Maria Veronica’s First Profession was a joyous occasion, attended by supportive figures, including several priests and her large, extended family. During the next three years, Sister will continue to prepare for the day of Final Vows as a Slave of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Please join us in thanking God for this beautiful vocation and praying for her perseverance! Veni Sponsa Christi!
