Her Charism: The Immaculate and Sorrowful Heart of Mary holds great meaning for this Sister. It is a metaphor and mirror image for her own life and mission. The flame symbolizes her love for God.; the sword, her participation in the mysteries of her own redemption; and the roses, her virtues of humility, purity, and obedience. This Sister is committed to evangelizing by rebuilding society through the education of women under the protection of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and endeavors to be a living image of her.
