The choice to become a Sister is really a response to an invitation and a plan - God's loving call and God's unique plan.  In almost every religious tradition there are those who are called forth from the community of faith to serve and to lead the community by example in their faith journey. In accepting this call, the individual promises in a public way to put God first. All else follows from this.

For a religious Sister there are 4 major aspects of her life:
*  Her relationship to God; 
*  Her relationship with her Community; 
*  Her relationship with those to whom she ministers;
*  Her personal relationship with family, friends and self.
