Her Charism:  Following the Rule of St. Augustine and with her pioneer spirit, this Sister is a witness of heroic “holiness in action.”  She lives Jesus and desires to make Him known, obeyed, and loved.  In her prayer, work, and sacrifices, she strives to fulfill Our Blessed Mother’s desire to revive the Faith in her beloved Russia.  She wants Jesus to be the “heart of her heart” and that in meeting her, people will experience His love, mercy, forgiveness, gentleness, generosity, kindness, patience, poverty, humility, courage, and understanding.    In her, they will also meet Love, Truth, Life, and Resurrection, and find the Way.  All is summed up in the words of her vows where she says, “Lord, I am delighted to live YOU,                              LOVE (personified), to be consumed by Your Will, and dedicated to growing with mankind        in that one Love.”
