Her StoryoWhen she was twelve her Mom passed away. Her dad
thought that the best place for her to live was at a nearby convent of Augustinian nuns. Teresa liked living in the convent, it was peaceful and happy. She found out that joining a convent was a good way to serve God and become closer to Him. When it was time for her to leave and return home with her dad, she had decided that she would be a Carmelite nun. She made her profession at the Convent of the Incarnation at 19 years old. She was sad that being a nun wasn’t peaceful and easy. God became her best friend. She spent all her time with Him. She found the peace and happiness she had been looking for with God in her heart

Another StoryAs a teenager, she cared only about boys and clothes and flirting like other teen’s. When she was 16, her dad decided she was out of control and sent her to a convent. At first she hated it but she finally enjoy it. Growing love for God, and partly because the convent was less strict than her father. When the time came for her to choose between marriage and religious life, she had a tough time making the decision. She thought being a nun didn't seem like much fun. She finally chose religious life, she did because she though that it was the only safe place for someone as prone to sin as she was.
