This special and final episode sees the return of Sr. Beth Fitzpatrick, who previously featured in her own episode “A House of Prayer: A Conversation with Sr. Beth Fitzpatrick, O. Carm.” Sr. Beth, as the Archdiocese of New Orleans’s vicar for religious life, served as a creative steward on the Flourishing Sisterhood project and podcast. She and Claire Gallagher, the Flourishing Sisterhood project manager, provide insight into the production of the podcast, and their heartfelt experiences listening to each sisters’ story. As it is the final episode, they express their gratitude for the listeners, the sisters who participated in the podcast, and all those who offered their support along the way.

The Flourishing Sisterhood Project is supported by the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation’s Catholic Sisters Initiative. The podcast is produced by the Loyola Institute for Ministry and retained by the university’s Digital Humanities Archive.
