Sister Therese Richstatter — 60 years

BORN: Clay Center, Kan.
ENTERED CONGREGATION: March 18, 1950

I find it hard to believe that 60 years have passed since I entered the community of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Concordia. They have been happy and grace-filled years that went by so quickly.

I enjoyed the years spent in teaching, religious education and library work.

Now the pace of my life is slower. I am involved in various little ministries here at the Motherhouse.

I feel privileged to spend my retirement years here at the Motherhouse, where I have more time for prayer and contemplation.

I appreciate having the chapel, daily Mass and eucharistic adoration where I live. I have been so blessed during my years in religious life.
