Abbess of the Order | Spreading Joy & Expiating Guilt for Over 15 Years

Sister Sorenda ‘da Booty, proud Abbess of the Russian River Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence.

For over 15 years, they have dedicated their life to the Order’s sacred vows — to promulgate universal joy and expiate stigmatic guilt.

One of our greatest joys each year is seeing the smiles of our beautiful community as we walk together in the Holiday Parade of Lights in Guerneville.
