Motto: "You are my refuge and my strength, my God in whom I trust."

Perpetual Vows: 2006

Vocation

God called me at the age of twenty from a non-religious family background. The God I had not known before, following the example of Saint Paul, awakened the seeds of faith in me and helped me understand that "all things work together for good for those who love God" (Romans 8:28). By accepting His call, God, through His Creative Spirit, transformed everything in me that was ungodly and resistant, enabling me to embrace a path in life I could never have imagined for myself. The journey from unbelief to a committed identity in God is a long and laborious task—one that, beyond my own human efforts, was made possible by God's grace and power, which surpass all understanding.

Ministry

Throughout my ministry, I have sought to unite a deeply contemplative spirit with selfless active service. I have worked with nearly all age groups and encountered a variety of life situations, all calling me to help root Christian values in people's lives. My current mission focuses on marginalized children and their families and requires both the reconciliation of different cultures and languages along with a willingness to take risks and embrace new challenges.
