On August 23rd Sr. Mary John celebrated her Golden Jubilee. A beautiful Mass with many priests was held at St Peter's Catholic Church Leicester, after which a splendid buffet was shared by Sr Mary John's many friends, sisters and colleagues, including several guide dogs who sat at the back of the Church and behaved (nearly) impeccably.
Sr Mary John works with 'Pets as Therapy' with her companion dog Molly, who works her magic every week in the mentally handicapped wards.
