Meet Sister Phyllis
When did
you decide
to follow
the call to
religious
life?
This is a rare photo of "camera shy" Sister
Phyllis, taken outside the Assumption
parish church in Eagle Township.

Her snow white hair blends in beautifully
with her white summer veil.
Counter
Sister Phyllis is enjoying her retirement years. A
former RN, Sister keeps busy at an assisted living
retirement community as an Extraordinary
Eucharistic Minister. She brings Holy Communion to
the sick, and regularly looks in on the residents as
she makes her "Rosary rounds." She's happy to pray
a decade of the rosary with someone living alone in
the complex. For those who claim they don't have
the energy for an entire decade (some are in their
90's or beyond!) she'll agree to one Our Father and
be on her way.
