Sr. Maria Johanna Barrett (’14), O.P., Takes Final Vows
Nearly eight years since she joined the in Summit, New Jersey, Sr. Maria Johanna Barrett (’14), O.P., made her Solemn Profession on August 6, the Feast of the Transfiguration.
Sr. Maria Johanna’s journey to the Dominicans began when she stumbled upon the book One Mind and Heart in God: Dominican Monastic Life as a senior at ϲ. “It was kind of amazing,” she later recalled. “It was exactly what I wanted.” In her eight years of discernment, she has fallen steadily more in love with the monastic life and her monastery’s of “hidden apostolic fruitfulness.” She is overjoyed at last to pledge her life totally to Christ.
Present at the Mass were Sr. Maria Johanna’s parents and all nine of her siblings, including alumni Philip (’07) and Marguerite (’22), as well as several alumni friends. “It was a lovely ceremony,” reports Andrea McCann (’13). “One could see the joy on Sister’s face!”
Deo gratias!
