Flourishing Sisterhood

This episode features Sr. Julie Glaeser, who has been a Sister of the Order of Saint Clare since 2011. Prior to becoming a Poor Clare, the Holy Spirit was guiding her towards religious life throughout her experiences. For twenty-eight years, she was a part of the Secular Fransican Order which had a relationship to the local Poor Clare monastery. Since entering, Sr. Julie’s ministry is conducted primarily through music and prayer for souls in need. After receiving her first guitar in eighth grade, she says music is the best way she connects with the Lord and His people.

The Flourishing Sisterhood Project is supported by the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation’s Catholic Sisters Initiative. The podcast is produced by the Loyola Institute for Ministry and retained by the university’s Digital Humanities Archive.
