Daphne E. Queen, Randallstown, Maryland
My interest in SSND started when I was a student attending the Notre Dame of Maryland University in Baltimore, Maryland, while studying "peace and justice" educational subjects.
I began taking this training in pursuit of personal knowledge, and to increase my Biblical spiritual growth on "World Peace" as a missionary.
Two Professors at the University (Sister Sharon Kanis & Sister Eileen Eppig) taught these subjects so inspirationally. I became interested in the SSND Associates Program. I read about it so I pursued this awesome endeavor!
Another person who poured into my new beginnings as a Pre-Associate was Sister Jane Forni.
Ten years later, I can truly say I believe in the spirit and history of the congregation and its foundress, Blessed Mary Theresa of Jesus Gerhardinger. I've grown spiritually and am so grateful.
