TRANSCRIPT

I attended CMI as a student at the teacher training school. At that time, we practiced religion in much the same way as the nuns. Students in the boarding school and the teachers school were involved along with the nuns in religious services such as Mass, vespers and compline. We didn't understand everything that was going on during celebrations, but we took part nevertheless. And we didn't object to the duties of religious life, obviously, since many of us became nuns. In my family, this was only natural, because we were practicing Catholics. Daily religious instruction wasn't a problem for me, because religion was an integral part of my life.
