| When did you decide to follow the call to religious life? |
The above is what I have done, but it is not who I am.
I was blessed with a wonderful family who instilled in me good
values and a strong faith base. I think from very early on Jesus was
calling me. You know, the "whisper". I think we all hear it but we
pretend we didn't hear or in my instance.....what do I do with hearing
the call. I couldn't be a minister--I was a girl! I certainly couldn't be a
Sister--I was Lutheran! So, life happened.
It wasn't till in my thirties that I became Catholic and in my
forties that I realized that indeed it was possible for me--in fact,
He was calling me--as lowly as I am--He was calling me!
It is the greatest gift-FAITH. The Catholic faith so rich in the
fullness of truth is who I am. I am blessed to live it as a Sister.
