CHI St. Elizabeth celebrated its 135th anniversary Sept. 17. Events included a picnic for staff, Mass celebrated by Bishop James Conley and a presentation by Michael Bingeman, director of mission integration: “A Franciscan Tradition: Spirituality and History of St. Elizabeth and its Foundresses.” St. Elizabeth opened in 1889 and was Lincoln's first general hospital. It was founded by the Sisters of St. Francis of Perpetual Adoration and today, St. Elizabeth is a full-service, 260-bed, non-profit regional medical center.
