After prayer, the election of Provincial began. Delegates elected Sister Barbara Flores for Provincial.
The day ended with Eucharistic Liturgy in St. Vincent Church.

Congratulations, Sr. Barbara! My husband, James Corr, and I first met you in Belize about 2014 as guests of Sr. Maggie Cooper. We loved our stay with you and the other Sisters, and so appreciated your hospitality, given by one and all! The Holy Spirit has guided the Western Province when voting for you, and you in accepting your nomination! You will make a very good Provincial! God be with you!
Sr. Barbara, congratulations on being elected to be WP Provincial by your Sisters.
Congratulations to Sr Barbara on being elected Provincial of the Western Province. Your gentle hand, kind heart and listening ear will guide you on this ministry.
Sincere congratulations to Sister Barbara on her election as the next Western Province Provincial. I first met Sister Barbara in 2013 in Belize and her leadership skills made an enormous impression on me. I will continue to keep her in prayer. We are so blessed.
