Sister Marilyn (Mary Stephen) is grateful to live in the contemplative environment of a Benedictine monastery. "Living contemplatively means seeking to live in the presence of God at all times. Contemplative moments draw us into relationship with God. Being drawn into union with God can happen while praying, listening to music, viewing art, being in nature. They all teach about God. It’s our choice whether to respond, whether to experience the deep harmony with all that is.”
