Portrait of a Daughter of Fr. Medaille

           
Eyes open to the world both miserable and sinful,
but a world worked on by the Holy Spirit;
Eyes open and ears attentive to the sufferings of the world;
Eyes open, ears attentive and spirit alert... never settled down,
always in a holy disquietude, searching...
in order to understand, to divine what God and the dear neighbor
await from her today, now, for the body and for the soul;
Eyes open, ears attentive, spirit alert... 
sleeves rolled up for ministry, without excluding the more humble,                                                        the less pleasing, the less noticeable;
Finally, in her face the reflection of a virtue proper to our Congregation,
– continual joy of spirit... This is the quiet inner glow of the Sister whose life
in the service of Jesus Christ has been successful.

– Marius Nepper, S.J.
