I have been a Sister of St. Joseph of Rochester for over 45 years. I started out teaching math in high school and junior high in Rochester. Then I was part of the welcoming community at Spirit House in Rochester, a therapeutic community for religious sisters. I did psychological counseling for about 20 years, and I helped to found and was the executive director of Cobblestone Springs, an inter-faith retreat center in Dundee, NY. I have done spiritual direction, retreats, and spiritual programs at Cobblestone Springs and up to the present.
