English translation:
Sister Kay Kramer, CDP
My name is sister Kay Kramer and I am a sister of divine providence. Why am I a sister of divine providence? Because it is the life God has called me too and it is a life that brings me great joy. Praying, serving God’s people, and trying to be a sister to everyone… These things are a part of this beautiful life. Come and join us in following Jesus Christ!”
Sister Paula Gohs, CDP:
My name is Sr. Paula Gohs, CDP. I professed vows of Poverty, Chastity, and Obedience at the age of 20. I love being a Sister of Divine Providence because this vocation solidly grounds me as a disciple of Jesus Christ. Every day the ring and cross I wear remind me that I am vowed to Jesus for life. Simply and graciously, I try to live faithful to this commitment. A true morning person, I love to get out of bed at 5:00 in the morning. With a cup of hot coffee, I am ready to spend an hour with Jesus Christ in prayer and meditation. For me, this is the most important hour of the day. I love that I live in community with three Sisters. We share our life together. Each of us has unique personalities and special gifts that enrich all of us. I love that we four Sisters pray together each evening, including also the experiences of our ministries that day. Night brings good closure to each day, and creates a deep sense of peace for me. I love examining together the four fundamental virtues that we live as women of Divine Providence. At times we share with the whole community, but mostly with our local community. Because life is always in process, the lived experience of these four religious values is also always in process. I love that besides the ministry and the community, there are lighthearted moments of celebration—days of rest, birthdays, reunions with my birth family, good times with friends and companions in ministry, and now and then vacations. Finally, I appreciate personal time to recreate myself—body, mind and spirit. I love very much being in ministry with lots of people—as a teacher in schools, as a counselor for youth and adults, and in pastoral ministry at many Catholic churches, including the Hispanic communities. I look forward to seeing lots of these folk face to face in heaven, along with my family. Most of all, I will see Jesus himself, along with all the saints I have come to admire. What joy we will share for all eternity! This is my life in process. Thank You for your attention!
