Our prioress, Vicki, is also one of the foundresses of our monastery. A Cistercian Prioress is a leader and more – a friend, spiritual guide, image of the Cistercian spirit, and with her marvelous smile and gift of ready humor, sustainer of morale. She holds down several jobs in the community, taking her turn at common chores, and selflessly acting as principal driver. Her position of prioress is a function, an honor, and a life-sustaining presence to a vibrant and striving community.
