Favorite Verse in the Holy Rule: Ch. 58 “Whoever is to be received in the monastery comes before the whole community in the oratory and promises stability, fidelity to the monastic way of life and obedience.” During the 69 years I have been a member of this community, this promise lived out by my sisters has been a daily bolstering and prodding incentive for my own commitment.

The JOY of being a Benedictine Sister in this community: Seeking God is the very focus of our life together. The joy is that there could be no better focus for our lives.
