Sisters of the Living Word

Just last year I celebrated 40 years as a Sister and just last week I celebrated 60 years of life. It seems like yesterday that I began a teaching career in Catholic schools. It started in Morton Grove, Illinois and has led me to New Orleans, Louisiana. In between, I honed my teaching skills in grades 1, 4 and preschool. In l974, when I was asked to study the Association Montessori Internationale Method, I found that the education of preschool children is extremely important. To give them a solid base on which to build a lifetime of learning, coupled with a faith-filled atmosphere, became a priority for me.

As a Sister of the Living Word I feel privileged to be a member of our Community, and I am devoted to the Mission of spreading God’s Word. Our new thrust as a Community is on working to restore dignity to those in our society who experience discrimination.

Other areas in which I am interested are vocations and developing a plan for a possible new SLW business that would help support our mission as Sisters of the Living Word. I have created several Power Point presentations that can be used at vocation fairs or that can be burned on CDs and sent to prospective candidates for religious life. Ideas for a possible new business are always being talked about. Hopefully a new venture will be created to help us in our mission endeavors.
