“How I wish to spend my entire life given to him by the three vows.” Kate convinces Bishop O’Connor of her call to religious life. He urges her to begin a new congregation dedicated to the Indians and “Colored” peoples. Doubting her ability, Kate makes a retreat on March 19, 1889. Convinced that Christ will guide her, Kate says “Yes!”
