“To be Your presence is our mission here,
to show compassion’s face and list’ning ear,
to be Your heart of mercy ever near . . .
We are Your heart, O Christ, Your hands and voice,
to serve Your people is our call and choice,
and in this mission we, the Church, rejoice,
Alleluia!”
“Delores Dufner is a nun of the Order of Saint Benedict at Saint Benedict’s Monastery in Saint Joseph, Minnesota. She is on the faculty of Saint Benedict’s College and Saint John’s University, Collegeville, Minnesota.”
