Hospital Sisters of the Third Order Regular of St. Francis

Sister M. Dolorosa Stanoßek

✝ Monday, July 25th 2016


Whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me.

(Mt 25:40)

Sister M. Dolorosa was born on May 15, 1922 in Bremen-Blumenthal. She entered our Congregation on September 18, 1943 and made her first profession of vows on October 29, 1946.

 In 2002 she was honoured by the Mayor of the city of Ennigerloh with the Honorary Plaque. This symbolizes appreciation for her work for the others. Believing, trusting and with determination, Sister M. Dolorosa walked the path of a disciple of Christ in Franciscan simplicity. Modesty, contentment and benevolence characterised her life.

Trusting in God’s infinite love and in the hope of perfection in God, our dear Sister passed away on July 25, 2016 in St. Heriburg House in Münster.

 With love and gratitude we say our farewells to her. In prayer, we commend her to the presence and goodness of God.
