Summary
It's easy to feel burnt out in today's hectic pace of life. Sr. Mary Grace, Sr. Ann Immaculée, and Sr. Marie Veritas focus on the value of slowing down and reorienting our identity from "doing" to "being." The Sisters explain how slowing down and resting can help us be receptive to God's love and find peace in our daily lives.
