The JOY of being a being a Benedictine Sister in this community: There are many joys that are integral to my life as a member of Mother of God Monastery. Specifically that the four of us who entered copmmunity together continue to be friends and try to spend a weekend together each year.
Prayer together with the sisters I live with is life-giving to me.
It is a gift to experience my sisters more and more becoming women who are gentle, compassionate, merciful and peaceful.
