One key motivation was a calling to lead a life of poverty, explained in an article in Western Friend called Overcoming Need.

I really enjoyed your interview on Northern Spirit Radio with Mark Helpsmeet. So nice to hear you both "in person".

Good to listen to you both Sisters Alegria and Confianza. I hope that the broadcast generates a lot of interest in the monastery - it should do!

Oh, how wonderful to see this! I'll be listening; they're remarkable. I heard about them about a year ago on a FB friend's page and have tried to follow them since.
