Jesus says: \u201cI am the way, the truth, and the life.”<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/p>\n(John 14:6)<\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Sister M. Waldemara was born on the Koop family farm in Altenberge, near Meppen, and grew up with her six siblings. Two years after her older sister, Sister M. Herlinde, joined our community, Sister M. Waldemara followed her example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sister M. Waldemara was a typical nurse who worked on the wards at St Franziskus Hospital in M\u00fcnster, Ennigerloh, Waldniel, Dorsten and Haltern. She completed the ward manager course in Freiburg and later took part in the pastoral course for the care of the elderly and sick in M\u00fcnster. From 2013 onwards, she lived in the parish of Ahaus-W\u00fcllen, caring for the elderly and immobile by visiting them and bringing them Holy Communion. She was also the superior of the convent, welcoming many guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In mid-2025, Sister M. Waldemara requested to be relieved of her duties and transferred to St. Franziskus House in Nordwalde. Her strength was visibly declining. After a lengthy stay at St Franziskus Hospital in M\u00fcnster, she went to Nordwalde to recuperate. Sadly, she was no longer well enough to say goodbye to the sisters in the convent and the people of W\u00fcllen. A few days ago, she was taken to M\u00fcnster University Hospital due to an acute illness, where she peacefully gave her life back into God’s hands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sister M. Waldemara drew strength in her life from the words of Jesus: “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” She was familiar with this saying from the altarpiece in her parish church in Altenberge. When asked once whom she would like to meet in heaven, she replied, “Jesus and all my loved ones.” May she be granted just that. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We gratefully bid farewell to Sister M. Waldemara. We remember her in our prayers and in the celebration of the Eucharist and remain united to her as sisters.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
