Metso ya ka le Pitso ya ka (My Roots & Calling)

Born in **Dewetsdorp** in 1974 into a loving family of five children, I was embraced by the Catholic Church from the very beginning of my life—receiving the holy Sacraments of Baptism, Holy Communion, and Confirmation within its nurturing walls.

My unique spiritual path became clear while attending **St. Charles Catholic Church**. Watching the dedicated lives of the Sisters filled my heart with curiosity and awe. Encouraged by my parish priest, Fr. Raphael Mothe, I attended a vocational workshop at Assisi in 1992. The deep sense of community and peace I discovered among the Sisters captivated me completely, leading me to answer His call.

I officially began my journey with the congregation in 1995, entering the Novitiate in 1999 and celebrating my First Profession in 2006. This year, in **January 2026**, my heart overflows with gratitude as I celebrate my glorious **Silver Jubilee**—marking twenty-five beautiful years of formal commitment to our community.

Bophelo bohle ba Tshebeletso (Decades of Service)

After matriculating from **Sehlabeng High School** in Ladybrand, I dedicated my hands and mind to structural care and administrative mastery. I balanced hands-on community care with expanding my skills, completing Computer studies in 2010 and Bookkeeping Fundamentals in 2018.
