:08:02
I'm also aware that we lack certain facilities
that you were accustomed to...
:08:06
at your former post,
and that our building is antiquated.
:08:10
Not half as antiquated
as some of the sisters.
:08:14
They are dedicated nuns and teachers...
:08:16
and St. Francis has one of the
highest scholastic standings in the state.
:08:22
When our girls leave here, Sister,
they are educated.
:08:25
They're literate, not educated.
:08:28
There is a difference, Mother.
:08:31
There is a whole world
outside of St. Francis.
:08:35
And these girls should know about it.
:08:39
That's true. But first we must do our job.
:08:43
So in the future, please try to remember...
:08:45
that when you plant a seed
in a mind like Rosabelle's...
:08:49
chances are you will get an explosion,
not a flower.
:08:58
I called you together
because I have very important news for you.
:09:04
St. Francis will definitely participate
in the Interfaith Youth Rally...
:09:08
to be held in Santa Barbara, California.
:09:11
His Excellency is very enthusiastic
about the project.
:09:15
- Bless him!
- Then we're really going.
:09:18
It'll be a new experience for us.
:09:20
The rally will be interfaith,
interracial and coeducational.
:09:24
Coeducational? With boys?
:09:29
The expenses will run about $150
for each girl...
:09:33
and those chosen to go
will have to contact their parents.
:09:36
We're leaving the day after graduation,
so we have a lot to do.
:09:39
Sister Rose Marie will get in touch
with our schools across the country...
:09:43
and make sleeping arrangements,
Sister Clarissa will drive the bus...
:09:46
and Sister Celestine will arrange a
music program to be presented at the rally.
:09:51
And, Sister George, I'd like you
to prepare an art and science display...
:09:56
to show the other schools there
the kind of things we're doing here.
:09:59
- I'll get right to it, Mother.
- Sister George...
