Sharing Benedictine values in the classroom,corporate America, in congregations (Catholic & non-Catholic) throughout the U.S.  and with the employees here at the Mount were life giving experiences for Connie.

As vocation minister, her walk with many women always centered on God’s presence within their hearts.  Her favorite question was always:  “How’s your heart?  What is God doing within your heart? “

As Sub-prioress, she ministered to the needs of her community finding the power of prayer to be the empowerment of God’s presence in their lives.

Currently, her ministry is one of hospitality at the front desk of our monastery, answering phone calls and directly serving guests in their needs.

When time permits, she enjoys cooking ethnic  meals and inviting sisters to join around the table.
