The Dominicans have posted on their social media a greeting for the 110th birthday of Sister Marie Bernadette, "the oldest Dominican sister in the world."
Sister Marie Bernadette, who lives in Dax, in France's Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, is not only the oldest sister in the order but she also set a historic record for her years of profession.
In a Jan. 5 post on the Dominicains de Bordeaux Facebook page, the Dominicans quoted the sister's superior on the occasion of her birthday: "For me, what's most beautiful is that she will be professed for 90 years this coming April 18!!! That's a record."
