Sr. Mary Seraphina

I am an Archdiocesan hermitess of the Roman Catholic Church located in Georgia, U.S.A. Since I am solely responsible for all my own financial and temporal needs, I work part-time and accept monetary gifts to support my vocation. 

As a consecrated religious under the vows of poverty, chastity and obedience, my goal is to dedicate myself fully to a life of contemplation, working from my hermitage while living in accordance to my Archdiocesan-approved Rule of Life as an canonical hermitess (Canon 603--eremitic life), living a stricter, cloistered contemplative life, and being available for more evangelization and spiritual works in service to the People of God.

Mission

It is truly a blessing to share the Faith and nurture the love of Christ in others. I look forward to connecting with individuals who seek to deepen their relationship with God and share His love with those around them. 

 

 

 

 

Serving the Body of Christ

As an eremitic religious, I serve everyone by my life of solitude, dedicated to prayer -- centered on the Word of God, through the Eucharist and Lectio Divina -- since the main activity of a hermitess is contemplative prayer, a single-minded attention to God.

A consecrated hermitess contemplative life bears witness to God's greatness and His Love, that a person may give herself entirely and exclusively to His service and for a lifetime.

 

 

“Acquire the Spirit of peace, and thousands around you will be saved.”
