Her Charism:  Living a cloistered life, hidden from the eyes of the world, this nun is dedicated to the incessant Adoration of Our Lord Jesus Christ, truly present in the Most Blessed Sacrament, in the spirit of reparative thanksgiving, devotion to the Mother of God, and spiritual maternity for those in the priesthood.  In this way, the little world of her enclosure is a true powerhouse of spiritual energy that opens up vast horizons of hope and extends the Kingdom of Our Lord.  The flame of thanksgiving  is truly shining throughout the world as this Bride of Christ continues her hymn.
