“… For I know the plans I have for you…”


Sister Susan Marie Lindstrom will be directing our February vocation retreat weekend. Sr. Susan has chosen the theme, "...for I know the plans I have for you..." taken from Jeremiah 29:11. This retreat is designed for single Catholic women between the ages of 18 and 40 who are currently discerning a call to religious life.

Sister Susan Marie is a member of Our Lady of Grace Monastery where she made her perpetual monastic profession in 2008. She teaches religion at Bishop Chatard High School in Indianapolis, where she also serves as department chairperson. Sister Susan Marie shares her gifts of writing and music with both her students and her monastic community.
