Sister Placida Anheuser turned 107 on October 15--an accomplishment she didn't earn for herself and that she finds hard to believe--although she feels like someone who is 107. "It's hard to be this old," she said in a conversation a few days before her birthday. "I don't have much energy." In spite of decreased energy, Sister Placida still motors around the monastery on her scooter. She spends much of her time in prayer. Her lifelong love and study of Scripture gives her a lot on which to reflect. And, she says, "I look forward to meeting everyone in heaven some day!"
