What roles do you play in vocation ministry?
I’m vocation director for my community, and I recently began as a Member Area Coordinator, Midwest, alongside Sister Kathleen Branham, O.S.F.

How long have you been involved in vocation ministry?
I’m in my third year.

Has being a member of NRVC been helpful to you?
The orientation program was a great beginning and very helpful. I appreciate the gatherings of directors and sharing of ideas.  I also find the articles online are helpful for me and for sharing with the entire community.

What idea(s) have you used in lately that excite you?
I have been doing a weekly chat with discerners. I also feel that Zoom has helped connect us with discerners who live at a distance from the monastery.  We have been able to share more of our charism.

What do you find most rewarding  in vocation work?
I find sharing our charism and community life with others is the most rewarding.

Could you share a fun fact about yourself?
I am a triplet and one of my triplet sisters is in a different Benedictine community!
