YANKTON BENEDICTINES
Volume XLVI, No. 2 Summer/Fall 2015
Since November 29, 2014, religious men and
women worldwide have responded to Pope
Francis’ letter to re-examine their life as religious
and to reflect on the origins of their communities
and the teachings of their respective founders and
foundresses. In his message, Pope Francis stated
three aims for the Year of Consecrated Life: to
look to the past with gratitude, to live the present
with passion and to embrace the future with hope.
The Benedictines of Sacred Heart Monastery
are grateful for the legacy of St. Benedict, who in
480 wrote his rule for monastic living. In the Rule,
Benedict gives ample reference to Sacred Scripture
to guide monastics in pursuing the teachings of
Jesus in their daily lives. Benedict’s Rule first
spread throughout Europe, and then was taken by
missionary monks and sisters to the rest of the
world. It was, as Pope Francis said in the
Apostolic Letter to All Consecrated People, “like a
seed which becomes a tree, each institute grew and
stretched out its branches.”
In 1874, five sisters from Maria Rickenbach,
Switzerland, came to Maryville, Missouri. Out of
this mission grew the beginning of Sacred Heart
Monastery in 1880. Bishop Martin Marty OSB,
the Vicar Apostolic of Dakota Territory, soon
visited the young community and asked the Sisters
to assist him in ministering to the Native American
people at Fort Yates on the Standing Rock
Reservation in present day North and South
Dakota. After moving their headquarters to Zell,
Yankton, and Vermillion, they permanently settled
on a hill west of the city of Yankton in Dakota
territory. Despite their extreme poverty and
language barriers, the sisters responded diligently
to the ministry of spreading the gospel.
Years later, when Mother Jerome Schmitt
became the fifth prioress in 1932, the community
numbered over 200 Sisters. During her tenure
Mount Marty College was founded and the present
Bishop Marty Chapel was built. The dedicated
services of the sisters, living and dead, who served
in the fields of
education, health care,
domestic or clerical
work have benefited
thousands of children
and adults in the U.S.
and South America.
Pope Francis states,
“to tell our story is to
praise and thank God.”
In that spirit of
gratitude, the
Benedictine Sisters of
Sacred Heart Monastery
celebrated their heritage
and history with an
Open House last March
15, where individuals
and families were invited
to visit our monastic
home and learn about the
Yankton Benedictines
and their history. Tours
were conducted through
Marty House (the original residence of
the first Bishop of the Dakotas, Martin Marty), the
Sisters’ dining room, chapel (see photo in banner
above) and gathering space. The tours culminated
in the Chapter Room where Sisters and guests

2011—2017
Reflections from the Prioress — S. Penny Bingham OSB
Dear Friends,
We continue to celebrate this Year of Consecrated Life, as noted in our lead
story, looking to the past with gratitude, living the present with passion, and
embracing the future with hope, as encouraged by Pope Francis. We also join in
celebrating with our Sioux Falls Catholic Diocese as it ends a year of
remembering its 125th anniversary. Many of our Sisters were able to be part of the
final Legacy event in Sioux Falls in August, as we remembered and celebrated the
legacy of faith that we share and which has been shaped by our Benedictine
community.
Remembering is such an important part of our lives, especially of our lives as
Catholic Christians. Like the people of the Old Testament, we are encouraged to
remember God’s deeds and actions; Scripture helps us recall God’s saving deeds
among the Hebrew people and in the early Church; our sacraments help us remember and experience,
tangibly, God’s presence at work in our lives today. All of creation reminds us that our loving God
accompanies us and attends to our every need. As you browse through this issue, as you live each day of
late summer into autumn, may you remember what our God has promised: “I have loved you with an
ever-lasting love. I am with you always.” Know too that we Sisters remember you in our prayer; thank you
for remembering us in yours.
S. Penny
(continued from page 1) could spend time visiting over
refreshments.
In living the present with passion, the sisters
continue to share the fruits of their prayer and
community life in loving service to others. In addition to
professional ministries, many volunteer works are
gratefully done by the Sisters. This may be tutoring
students who live with a disability, helping to prepare
meals for the annual Thanksgiving dinner served in the
city of Yankton, or simply extending hospitality to
people of all races and cultures by offering a listening
heart. This fall the Sisters are planning to emphasize
their service to the local community in Yankton by
undertaking special projects to benefit the Yankton
Homeless Shelter, the River City Domestic Violence
Center, and assisting the residents at the Yankton Care
as they move to their new rooms at Majestic Bluff.
Trust in the Lord is vital to embracing the future
with hope. Basing that hope in God, the Sisters
continue their faithfulness to prayer and will be inviting
YOU to join us at a Mass in February 2016 to celebrate
the conclusion of the Year of Consecrated Life. More
information will be forthcoming in the Winter issue.
Life in today’s world presents challenges, not only
to lay people living in the mainstream of society, but
also to religious women, who must adapt their monastic
lives to meet current needs. Pope Francis calls us “to
practice the virtue of hope, the fruit of our faith in the
Lord of History who continues to tell us, ‘Be not
afraid…for I am with you.’ (Jer.1:8).”

Jubilee Celebrations of 25 & 50 Years on July 11, 2015
Three sisters celebrated their jubilees of profession this summer in the
Bishop Marty Memorial Chapel. During the liturgy, in the presence of
community and family, they renewed their religious vows. Sisters
Marielle and Janice celebrated their golden jubilees, and Sister Maribeth
celebrated her silver jubilee. Last spring’s issue featured these women.
Our website hosts these stories at http://yanktonbenedictines.org/news/.
Below are the stories of those sisters celebrating 60, 75, and 80 years of
monastic life.
These Jubilarians glow when they tell their stories of God’s goodness in happy memories and graces received. Diamond Jubilarians were honored at a private ceremony on July 31. Rejoice with them and with Sacred Heart Monastery as you read their stories.
60 Years – S. Marita Kolbeck is the seventh of eleven children
born on a farm near Salem, SD, to
Joseph and Clara Kolbeck. Her
Catholic education at St. Mary’s
School in Salem began in the sixth
grade after previous boarding at the
South Dakota School for the Deaf
in Sioux Falls. S. Marita remembers
it was her first encounter with nuns
and she was awestruck by the black
habits worn by the Bernadine
Sisters who were her teachers at that time. After
graduation from St. Mary’s High School in Salem in 1952,
S. Marita attended Mount Marty College for one year.
S. Marita entered Sacred Heart Monastery on
August 20, 1953. After professing monastic vows on June
29, 1955, S. Marita worked in the registrar’s office and the
college bookstore at Mount Marty for 12 years. She
graduated from St. Mary’s Junior College in Minneapolis
in 1969 as a certified occupational therapy assistant. She
set up that program at St. Thomas More Hospital annex in
Canon City, CO, before moving on to the education of
deaf students. Additional missions included deaf ministry
in Sioux Falls, SD, and Milwaukee, WI, and Fairbault,
MN; pastoral care in O’Neill, NE, and special needs
religious education programs in Sioux Falls, SD.
She moved back to Sacred Heart Monastery in
June, 2009 where she currently assists in the Gift Shop,
the Peace Center and as administrative assistant editing the
monastery’s Employee Newsletter. S. Marita writes,
“Looking back on 60 years of Benedictine living, I feel I
have grown so much and had the benefit of many
educational opportunities and travels. I treasure the time
spent touring the Holy Land in 1992 and the Rome
monastic experience in 1998. So many wonderful people
have touched my life and for all that I can only render
praise and thanks to God – the giver of all that is good and
true.”
60 Years – S. Jane McGowen begins her story by crediting her
family’s love and goodness to
each other as the primary
influencing factor in her decision
to choose religious life. Her
parents, James and Rose
McGowen were of Irish descent
and described as very devout
Catholics. After graduating from
Holy Trinity High School,
Hartington, NE, Jane entered
Sacred Heart Monastery in August, 1953. She professed
her monastic vows on June 29, 1955, and began her
nursing career at Sacred Heart School of Nursing and
Sacred Heart School of X-ray Technology in Yankton. S.
Jane earned her BS in Radiology at St. Louis University
and MS in Radiologic Science at the University of
Cincinnati.
She enjoyed her years of working as a nurse, a
health care educator and as a radiologic technologist in
hospital positions in CO, MO, IA, VA and SD. Looking
back on her experiences, Jane writes, “I have come to
believe that the professionals, especially those of religion
and medicine, have an awesome influence and
responsibility toward mankind.”
S. Jane writes, “My past Jubilees of profession as
a Yankton Benedictine Sister have been by far the happiest
days of my life!” Today, while reflecting on 60 years of
Benedictine living, she is grateful as she celebrates another
jubilee and for the enrichments she received in her
religious life. She cherishes a special love for Avera
Sacred Heart Hospital, and whenever she is able, she goes
there to assist with some clerical work. She adds, “I
believe one good example is worth 10,000 words.” In her
autobiography S. Jane writes, “All things work unto good
for those who love God.”

75 Years – S. Laeticia Kilzer was raised on a farm, south of Bentley, ND, with her twin
brother Edmund. Her parents, Frank and Klara Kilzer, and
11 siblings. S. Laeticia entered Sacred Heart Convent on
August 29, 1938, and made
monastic profession in 1940. Her
many years of ministry were in
education where she taught at all
levels from elementary to college,
including 33 years of teaching
chemistry at Mount Marty College.
She held a BA degree from the
College of St. Benedict in MN, a
MA in chemistry from the
University of South Dakota, and a
Ph.D. in chemistry from the University of Notre Dame.
Summers were spent in chemical research, and in 1972-73
she took a sabbatical year in Bonn, Germany, doing
research in an environmental laboratory.
At age 95, celebrating her 75th Jubilee, S. Laeticia
states, “Catholic faith and practice, family and education
were important values in our family and all of those things
drew me to Benedictine life. The support of close
community ties, shared prayer, life and fun times together,
an excellent education and the opportunity to serve many
students as a teacher for decades, all made mine a very
good life. There were some hard things in my monastic
life too, but everyone has hard things, and none of them
killed me; I learned and grew through all of them. I have
kind and loving care from the sisters and the people who
work in our care center, and I am so grateful for it all and
for everyone in my life.”
75 Years – S. Jeanette Klimisch starts her life story by telling of herself and her twin, S.
Jane. They were the youngest of eight children born to
Anton and Martha Klimisch, raised on the family farm
north of Yankton in the Sigel parish. Entering Mount
Marty Academy introduced young Jeanette to new
educational challenges and to the Benedictine Sisters. She
was surprised and delighted when she discovered her twin
sister and another classmate discerned independently the
same vocation! S. Jeanette entered Sacred Heart
Monastery in 1938 and made monastic profession on June
24, 1940.
Her teaching career began
at Mount Marty High School where
she taught a variety of courses. She
also served as Mother Jerome
Schmitt’s personal secretary. Her
specialty was in teaching speech,
theatre, and music and she enjoyed
directing the many plays, musicals
and pageants at Mount Marty
College and Sacred Heart
Monastery. S. Jeanette earned a BA degree from St. Mary-
of-the-Woods in IN and her Master’s degree in Speech
and Drama at the Catholic University in Washington, D.C.
Additional ministries included being Sub-prioress,
Academic Dean of Mount Marty College; serving on the
SD Health and Education Facilities Board, the Monastery
Council and other hospital Boards of Trustees; and
teaching at Mount Marty College until 1992 when she
received the title Professor Emeritus. In retirement she
developed an oral history resource center at the monastery
and enjoyed drawing and painting as hobbies. S. Jeanette
feels strongly that hope for the future is anchored in living
together as a “bonded community” devoted to prayer.
Reflecting on her 75th Jubilee of monastic living, S.
Jeanette states, “I’m grateful for the years of my
faithfulness to God and God’s faithfulness to me these
many years!”
80 Years – S. Leonette Hoesing was born the second of ten children to Fred and Elizabeth
Hoesing on a farm two miles north of Menominee, NE.
Looking back, S. Leonette recalls that at the end of her
sophomore year at Mount Marty
Academy, S. Cyrilla asked the
students at the end of a test,
“What do you plan to do when
you leave here?” S. Leonette said,
“It was funny. I had never thought
of it before, but at that moment I
knew I had to say I wanted to be a
Sister. From that moment on the
thought never left me.” She
entered Sacred Heart Convent on
September 4, 1933 and made profession on June 24, 1935.
Through the years S. Leonette earned degrees
from Mount Marty College, the Gregorian Institute of
America, Seattle University and licensure as a Social
Service Associate from the state of SD. S. Leonette taught
elementary grades for 11 years in Tabor and Ipswich, SD,
and Lincoln, NE, before she was called back to the
motherhouse to serve in positions as formation director,
assistant to the prioress, choir director, personnel director
and oblate director.
She served as prioress of St. Mary’s Priory,
Victoria, British Columbia, at the request of the Holy See,
and received the Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice medal of honor
from the Vatican. Additional mission work included
parish ministry in Grand Island, NE, and in Yankton,
Tyndall and Springfield, SD. She also served at South
Dakota Social Services and at Sister James Nursing
Home. She continued volunteering at Sister James
Nursing Home and Sacred Heart Hospital until 2005.
Her spirit of volunteerism went with her into
retirement at the monastery. S. Leonette writes, “In
celebrating my jubilee, I am grateful to be a Benedictine
and have the support of my community and to be able to
pray the divine office. It’s a wonderful life, I can’t think of
a life more rewarding. I’m grateful to my parents and my
family for everything I have received. To celebrate 80
years is a real joy and gift.”
