She then received her Bachelor of Arts in 1970 from Mount St. Scholastica, her Missouri Teacher’s Certificate from Benedictine College in 1975, and finally a Master of Arts in Religious Studies, Scripture and Spirituality from St. Louis University in 1981. As a Benedictine Sister, Sister Connie has provided spiritual guidance to thousands of participants through her extensive Retreat Ministry. She also spent 10 years as Vocation Minister for the Benedictine Sisters from 1980 to 1989 and 2006 to 2007. In addition, Sister Connie is currently the Transfer Director for the community. Today, she remains a vital part of the Donnelly Community.
