We, the Sisters of St. Benedict of Ferdinand, Indiana, are monastic women seeking God through the Benedictine tradition of community life, prayer, hospitality, and service to others. By our life and work, we commit ourselves to be a presence of peace as we join our sisters and brothers in the common search for God.

Remembering Who's in Charge
I've been trying to teach the kindergartners how to sing a new Mass setting that we've started using at school. They're normally good singers, but learning the Holy, Mystery of Faith, Amen, and Lamb of God isn't coming too easily. I asked them today, "Who's the leader in our class?" I was hoping they all would want to step up to the challenge. I was quickly brought back to reality when one of the students answered, "God." I can't argue with that! God's the leader and without God we can do nothing. I'm thankful for the reminder of letting God be in control and accepting what comes - all in God's time and not mine.
