Sister Faustina Maria is a founding member of the Sisters of Children of Mary. Sister was born in Reno NV, and raised in northern California until she was 14 when she moved to the border of Arkansas and Missouri. Not raised in any religion, she came into the church of her own free will at the age of 12 when her mother returned to the Sacraments. She began to pray the daily rosary at 17 and it was Our Blessed Mother who gave her a deep thirst for God. At 20 years old she entered the Children of Mary on November 7th 2012. She currently works in a women’s prison ministry teaching RCIA and travels the country helping to lead retreats, Holy Hours, Missions etc. She also helps form the younger sisters in the charism—to love and spread love for Our Eucharistic Lord.
