This episode features Sr. Maureen O’Connell, an Adrian Dominican, who currently serves as the Director of Secretariat of Social Concerns for the Archdiocese of Galveston-Houston. Through her diverse life and vocational experiences as a teacher, police officer, social worker, and religious sister, Sr. Maureen continues to impact the lives of many. Her family predicted that she’d be a “perfect little nun,” but she had other plans in mind. The Lord, nonetheless, led her to the Dominican Sisters in her hometown to pursue a life of service and protection for vulnerable individuals.
