OUR RELIGIOUS VOCATION
Our attraction to the Nuns developed all through our elementary school years. We'd often stand outside their Convent window. As soon as they were finished with evening Prayer, we'd ring their doorbell. The Nuns always invited us in to share with them. Their warm hospitality and love led us to believe in their way of life. We are proud to say that God put them in our life to inspire us to become Nuns. When we were "Sweet 16", we both decided to join these Nuns. Though we were very young, we knew the Lord was calling us. So we became members of the Sisters of the Most Precious Blood of O'Fallon, Missouri, a place we truly call Home.
"Precious Memories! How they linger!"
Our beautiful Motherhouse Chapel is a Powerhouse of Prayer. This chapel has graced many profession ceremonies and special feasts. It's beauty and spirit echoes in the hearts of all of our Sisters throughout the world. Our Prayer Life continuously unites all of us
"Together In Mission".
As in any other vocation, we needed to learn about the life we were embracing. Under the direction of Sister Petronilla, we spent three years learning how to become Sisters of the Most Precious Blood. They were happy years, indeed! Memories ever dear to our hearts! Of course, the rest of our lives we spend in truly living this wonderful life, dedicated to the Lord.
This beautiful grotto depicts an atmosphere of love and devotion to Mary, the Mother of God. It is an attraction to all who visit the convent grounds. If you're ever out in O'Fallon, please stop by to see it. Everyone is welcome!
After our years in the Novitiate, we made temporary vows for three years. We knew in our hearts, that we would be Nuns forever. Both of us never stop thanking God for the wonderful gift and blessing of our Vocation.
