God's Chosen
Sister Scholastica Vogelpohl
for our nine Jubilarians

The hand of God led you on to bring
The compassionate and gentle Christ into the lives of others.

To listen fully as others pour out their brokenness
While knowing well your own weaknesses.

You’ve given of yourself until you want to cry  “No more.”
Yet you seek the hand of God and find the courage to continue.
