Christ the King in an Age of No Kings
/

/
Anyone who’s truly living their vocation, religious, single, and married people, know both love and endurance. And there’s something about sisters who tend to move toward service.

In all that we run to and embrace, endure and uplift, we do it for love of people and love of God.
