Sr. Malia Makalita says “Yes” to God’s Call

I believe that I received the inspiration to become a Little Sister from my parents and grandparents. Growing up on the island of Tonga in the south Pacific, they always encouraged the children in our family to give our lives to God in whatever way they could. When I was in college, I tried to get rid of this longing to become a religious Sister and convince myself that it was just a foolish thought that I had. For three years I struggled between choosing to continue with my life as it was or to give my life to God.
