“I believe you, Lord, will bring to completion what you have begun in me.” – Philippians 1:6

I come from a loving, caring, hard-working Irish family and was blessed to have the Sisters of Notre Dame as my educators and mentors from grades 1 through 12. Their care, dedication and availability were very influential in my entering the order in August 1959 in Waltham, MA.

What I remember most about my first mission was being overwhelmed. So much to do, so little time to do it. Yet, thanks to community, everything managed to run.

I absolutely loved teaching, especially fourth graders. They were constantly changing, growing and becoming in all phases of life. Every day was a challenge and a real joy.

How can I express gratitude for the hundred fold in so many areas of my life? The journey of these 60 years has been a challenge endowed with many blessings. All the time, talent and treasures of others has enriched, encouraged and brought me to this “WOW” moment.

“I believe you, Lord, will bring to completion what you have begun in me.” Thank you for the Call. Thank you for the Blessings.
