How does an ordinary kid from Miller, South Dakota grow up and decide to become a nun? This is interview is with Sister Maribeth Wentzlaff, who is currently the prioress of the Yankton Benedictines. I was particularly interested in how she and her order are shaping education and healthcare in the region and how the Benedictines are reaching out to the public in 2019. How and why are they using social media?

S. Maribeth has taken away a lot of the mystery of what it's like to be a nun. Sidenote: if she could be a professional fisherman, she would be.
