Congregational Leadership

Our community has been blessed from its inception with dedicated sisters who, in the spirit of our foundress, keep before us the ideals contained in Living Word of God. This three-member team gives direction to our community efforts to bring the Word to generations thirsting for God. Elected for a five-year term, the leadership team gives direction to our community efforts to bring the WORD to generations thirsting for God.

“Impelled by the Spirit,

with revitalized joy and commitment

to our Living Word Mission,

we venture together into an unknown future,

our new horizon.”
