She entered the novitiate in Dubuque on July 7, 1907 and made her perpetual vows Feb. 11, 1910. She was assigned to Sioux City, Iowa and was there for eleven years as a floor and lab supervisor. In 1923, when the St. Joseph Mercy Hospital opened in Detroit, she was appointed its first superior. Later she served in this capacity at Ann Arbor and Pontiac, Michigan, at Mason City, Iowa and in St. Joseph Mercy Hospital, Dubuque. Her obituary also notes, ``The childlike piety of Sister M. Lourdes was remarkable. '' and ``Although obedience never called her to do formal teaching, one could learn from Sister the precious lessons of patience and charity she exemplified.''
