More important in my life, however, has been my membership in the Sisters of the Holy Family of Nazareth. For me, this association began forty-two years ago, when I sought admission to the order and commenced a journey that has been sometimes difficult and bewildering, and other times filled with a great sense of accomplishment and peace. My odyssey of ministry as a sister has taken me to a hospital and a child care institution for short periodic assignments, and to many schools where I have worked with countless youngsters and their families in a variety of positions within the education profession. Along the way, I have had the prayers, support, and companionship of my sisters.

I currently work at Holy Family University where I have taken on a few assignments since I joined the institution in 1994. Right now, I am fortunate to be able to go back to my first love, teaching, and work with young folks as they try to wade their way through the ups and downs of contemporary student life. Many have multiple responsibilities besides their studies. Like them, I am studying also – in the eLearning program at Drexel University where I am working toward a degree in library and information science. I hope to begin a new academic experience within a library setting after I complete my studies at Drexel.
