MARYKNOLL,• N.Y. —
Maryknoll Sister Mary Edna
Brophy, formerly of Toronto,
has returned to her mission in
Hong Kong after three years
of professional and spiritual
renewal in Canada and the
United States, ;
"Daughter of the former
George and Veronica Brophy,
Sister Mary, Edna is a gradu-
ate of St. Michael's Hospital
School of Nursing in Toronto
and worked there as a nurse
for seven years before enter-
ing the Maryknoll Foreign
Mission Congregation of
America in 1955.
Sister Edna was assigned to,
Hong Kong in 1960 where she
did nursing at Our Lady at
Maryknoll Hospital which
serves the poor of the teeming
refugee resettlement areas of
Kowloon.
In order to reach out to those
not being reached through the
hospital and be more directly
involved with their families,
Sister moved to clinic work in
1965.
As head nurse in•a large out-
patient clinic located in the
midst of huge resettlement
blocksof flats, Sister Brophy
was able to serve the sick and
their families through her
nursing as well as with health
education and home nursing
programs.. -

centre in New. York State, to
work as head nurse in the
Bethany nursing home of aged
and infirm Maryknoll Sisters.
In 1978 she set up the central
supply at the new Maryknoll
Nursing Home. While working
at Bethany, Sister took a re=
fresher course in nursing at
Pace University.
Upon completion of her
term of service at the nursing
home, and in preparation for
her return to Hong Kong,
Sister Brophy participated in
the Clinical Pastoral Educa,
tion program (CPE) at Toron-
to School of Theology.
"I found the CPE courses
very enriching," she said,
"somewhat like a new conver-
sion. Now I feel ready to go
back to bring this 'into my
work and personal relation-
ships in Hong Kong."
During the past three years,
Sister Mary Edna has had
many opportunities' to visit
her family and friends in the
Toronto area. She presented
slide -lectures about Hong
Kong and her life there in
classes at Catholic grade
schools in Wingham and Tees -
water. A. special gathering
was held for her at St. Augus-
tine's parish near Wingham in
October.
