Is it because of the joy we have in serving others? Or the closeness we feel with God during prayer? In this blog, our Sisters share why they love being a Sister, and remain true to their vows after 50, 60 or 70 years.
Agnes said on Friday, January 20, 2012:
Managua, Nicaragua, is a city of over a million people with more that 50 thousand taxis. One day I hailed a cab and, as I got in, the driver said: "Sister Agnes!" He had been a participant in a course we gave some years before in Bluefields on the opposite side of the country. What's not to like about that?
Sr. Mary Kabat said on Tuesday, February 07, 2012:
I look at the life I have had so far as a Bay Settlement Sisters and say "wow!" I have had so many opportunities to grow in my faith and love of God and share it with others. Some people look at religious life and think of what a person gives up, I think they should look at all a person gains.
Sister Martin said on Sunday, March 25, 2012:
I look back on my years as a Franciscan Sister and think of all the opportunities and graces I have received. I am overwhelmed at God's great love. I praise and thank God .
