A Penitent Blogger

Mindful of my imperfections, seeking to know Truth more deeply and to live Love more fully.

A vocation is a free gift from God

"Contemplative nuns,

"Hidden with Christ in God,

"Radiating His love through their presence

"In the heart of the world,

"Silently pleading with God for mercy, and

"Telling the whole world of His immeasurable love.

"We are Cloistered Contemplatives.

"We are called to a life of praise and adoration of God especially in His Eucharistic Presence. We foster a joyful community of charity, prayer, penance and work..."
