What was your first job before entering community or
your first ministry? What did you enjoy about it?
I taught children in the primary grades. I always wanted
to be a teacher --- just like my favorite first teacher, Mrs.
Valentine, who opened for me the fascinating world of the written
word.
As Franciscans celebrate 800 years since St. Clare
joined St. Francis in following Christ, what one facet of her life
would you like more people to know?
Clare means "light" and through her life she always pointed to
Jesus, the "Light of the World."
We often hear the phrase, "We are Easter people." What
does it mean to you or how do you live it?
Celebrate life! Nurture life which is God's gift to us all in
Jesus who said that He is the way, the truth, and the life.
What makes you laugh?
Bob Newhart type humor ... subtle, ironic, and deadpan. It's a
rarity!
