As an SNJM, Prisca worked with the Chinese community in both San Francisco and Portland as a parish minister, educator and social worker. She also continued to deepen her commitment to spirituality, practicing traditional Chinese medicine and sharing wisdom through the Ascension program.
A vowed religious for 65 years, 37 of those years as a Holy Names Sister, Prisca is survived by her siblings, Catherine Chung, Therese Hui and Paul Hui, her nieces and nephews, and the members of her religious community.
