Sr. Angela Ashbey, SLW 

My special call to the Sisters of the Living Word came to me in graduate school.  When some of my professors told us about the importance of God’s Word which was and is living and active in us and Scripture, I experienced being called to a new way of sharing God’s Word in my life and ministry.

My word and my challenge as a Living Word is to be the “Balm of Giliad” in the lives of those around me. We are challenged to share our faith journeys together.

After twenty years of being a teacher, coach, athletic director, pastoral associate and pastoral care minister at Wynhoven Health Care, I am now retired.  I daily connect with people and share the Light of the Living Word as I participate on the staff of our newly organized Our Lady of Guadalupe Bible Institute.  I also participate on the leadership team for the Westbank Catholic Charismatic Prayer Group of greater New Orleans Louisiana; serve the Music Ministry for Magnificat on the Westbank – (a spiritual group for Women); volunteer as pastoral care minister at Wynhoven apartments, West Jefferson Hospital, and Wynhoven Health Care Center in Marrero; and, participate in leading scripture sharing groups.

Even though I am retired, I am actively adjusting to my new ministries to which God calls me.  I readily sing my song each day as I build faith, hope, and love: “People who need People are the luckiest, really blessed, people in the world.”
