From convent life…
…to marriage…
and motherhood…
It’s been a wild and beautiful journey!
Ten years ago, I was a young novice, Sister Mary Inez. Today I am happily married and a mom of three. I spent 19 beautiful months in the convent, but I was never meant to stay there. The Lord had great plans for me, here in the world!
