About this episode

The episode features the parents of Sr. Bernadette Rose sharing their journey of supporting their daughter's religious vocation.

In this episode, we sit down with the parents of a young religious and their daughter, Sr. Bernadette Rose from the Little Sisters of the Poor. Sister’s mother and father share the deeply personal journey of walking with their daughter as she discerned God’s call—from childhood observations to the first conversations to the joy of seeing her flourish as she followed her calling. Listen as Sister’s parents relate how they dealt with questions and uncertainties, how they navigated other people’s reactions, and what they’ve experienced in trusting God with their daughter’s future. Their story offers encouragement and a reminder that a vocation is never lived alone—it unfolds in the heart of a family. If you’re a parent accompanying a daughter in discernment, or a young person wondering how your own family might respond to your calling, this episode is for you! Questions?
