There she was named mother superior from 1963 until 1970 when she resigned because of health problems. She contributed enormously to the creation of the [[monastery]]. She has also experienced many miracles from Saint [[Patapius of Thebes]]

 Nun Patapia helped greatly with the creation of the convent that was established in 1952 by Father Nektarios [[father Nectarios Marmarinos]], a priest from Corinth. The first mother superior was sister Siglitiki. In the first years the monastery was poor, without road access or water supply. 

Nun Patapia also experienced many miracles of Saint Patapios. Also nun Patapia's health is a miracle itself.  As a mother superior, Sister Patapia was distinguished for her charity work. Even today, although in advanced age, she is still collecting and sending medicines to the mission. ==Reference== *Dr Haralambos Bousias«The Holy Monastery of Saint Patapios in Loutraki» [edition of the Metropolis of Corinth, Sikyon, Zemenou, Tarsus and Polyfengous, 2012]. *«The Greek Monasteries» [Ev.
