TESTIMONY:
Though she has struggled ever since birth with complications resulting from a negative reaction to vaccines (which caused a speech impediment and other difficulties), Sr. Jacinta has always held on to her one stability - her faith in Jesus Christ. Shortly after her initiation into the Catholic Church on Easter Vigil 2006 (at the age of 13) she quickly understood that Jesus was calling her to be His bride as a religious. After she spent 9 years in discernment of the religious life - seeking to find the community that the Lord was calling her to - He led her to find the community of the Little Friars and Little Nuns of Jesus and Maryon facebook, where she learned that she could, in a way, relate to Moses - and that Jesus was asking her to take the step forward to enter into the high lifestyle and charism of the community; changing her shame about her disabilities into joy in using them "for the greater glory of God and for the salvation of the most souls possible."
