Sr MARY

In 1982, a year marked by memorable music, global events, and personal milestones, Mary felt an unexplained restlessness despite a fulfilling life as an Occupational Therapist in Dundee. A profound experience during Pope John Paul II's 1992 visit and a chance encounter with a Daughter of Charity sparked a deep curiosity. This led to a life-changing decision to join the Daughters of Charity, embracing a life of service underpinned by prayer. Today, she reflects on a rewarding 30-year journey, fulfilled and at peace with her choice.
