Stirring Up Beauty and Prayers For the LordThe word of "sister" has a variety of meanings. From the girl you were raised with to a very dear friend, it is almost always used to describe a most treasured relationship. Another type of sister takes sacred vows in a religious order, a lifestyle that for most of us is shrouded in mystery.

In addition to a life of prayer and devotion to God, Sister Cathleen Marie makes and sells handmade soap.
