The Triune God is so consistent in giving me the graces I need despite the pitfalls and mistakes I made.  Every time I feel unworthy of God’s call I could feel His guidance and love flowing concretely.  The prayers and support of my family is also another blessings that contributed to my perseverance.

I was in Grade Four when I began to learn religious songs and attending Mass became part of my life. I was young then but I am deeply touched by the songs during the Holy Eucharist and the quiet atmosphere inside the church.

It is always difficult to put into words God’s personal call. It is a day-to-day response that has to be repeated over and over. What I am certain of is that God has brought me into the world for a purpose and the purpose is being unfolded each day.

I was attracted to the Good Shepherd Sisters because of their welcom­ing and joyful spirit, and their mission of compassion and reconcili­ation. When I learned that the sisters took care of orphans and young girls who came from broken families, I was inspired by their dedication and commitment.

I told my spiritual direc­tor of my attraction to take care of the girls and he advised me to try the convent life. I told one of the Sisters who in turn referred me to the one in charge of admission. I was accepted and from the moment I entered the door of the convent I never did turn back.

The journeying through all the years, with the laughter and the tears, were blessings I have gained that I carry till the end.

Thank you dear Shepherd God for bringing me to the fold. Together with Your beloved children where I was called and purified like gold!
