| Anna with her parents |
My name is Anna O’Connor. I am 20 years old and I am from
Hopewell Junction, New York. I attended Franciscan University of Steubenville
for two years, studying for a degree in Communication Arts with a concentration
in Radio and Television. There I met our Sisters for the first time.
My family consists of
my parents, Cynthia and James, my older sister Rosemary (26), my twin brother
Alex (20), and my younger sister, Grace (15). In my free time I love to play
tennis and to play piano and to sing. I am a huge New York Yankees fan as well!
The Lord drew me to this community through our charism of
“seeking to make the merciful love of Christ visible.” I watched how the
Sisters loved others and how they loved me and I saw Christ directly. He then
romanced my heart each day with little gifts of his love and brought me here!
Jesus showers us with surprises every day if we are open to His gifts. I am so
grateful to Him for bringing me to Alton. May the Lord give you peace!
