I was reared in a devout Roman Catholic home and, although our
home contained many religious items, we never had a Bible there.
Consequently, I never heard of God's wonderful plan of salvation
by faith in the Lord Jesus. No one ever explained to me that I
only had to invite Him into my heart and ask Him to save me from
all my sins to be born again (Revelation 3:20). Instead, I only
knew what I was taught in the catechisms and in the institution
which we attended faithfully.
I had a deep love and devotion to the God I did not really know personally and I yearned to give my life to Him completely. According to the teaching I received, the way to do this was to become a nun and enter a convent. My parish priest pressed this idea on me as did the nuns who taught in my parochial school.
