SAN BENITO — "Each morning before I begin my day, I spend a few moments reflecting on the symbol that is uniquely ours as Sisters of Divine Providence," said Sister Zita Telkamp, who wears a silver necklace bearing this emblem as a sign of commitment to her religious community’s charisms.
"The design represents the earth enclosed in an open trefoil, which is a symbol for the Triune God we call Providence," the Sister of Divine Providence website explains. "God’s Providence is made visible through acts of justice and compassion and through an inclusive, hospitable presence."
