I met my first Sister at San Francisco Pride, 1999.  I don't know who she was but she inspired in me a desire to learn more about the order.  Upon moving to San Francisco in 2009, I began attending meetings the following spring and aspired later that summer.  After 21 (approximately) months, I took my vows and became an FPM (fully-professed member).  I am inspired by my fellow Sisters and look forward to serving all facets of the community.  I am particularly interested in doing what I can to ease the lives of the elderly members of LGBT and Straight communities.  I find a lot of joy working with others who share this calling.

I was raised Methodist in SW Iowa and later converted to Catholicism.  I currently am a non-practicing Catholic and feel there is still good to be found in the Church, although I sometimes have my challenges with the dogma.  I also have a fair bit of interest in learning more about Wicca and Judaism, though I can't honestly say I plan to change my current religion!
