The sisters of the monastery are very involved in the Yankton community's public Thanksgiving feast.  Gathered for an apple-peeling and pie-baking Saturday were (from left) Sisters Louise Marie Goettertz, Denise Stevens, Kathleen McCarthy, Jacquelyn Ernster (the prioress), Jane Ghyra (a monastery guest), Rosaleen Dickes, Evangeline Anderson and Bonita Gacnik.
