About this listen

 In this episode of Called, Fr. Mike Schmitz sits down with Sr. Gianna Maria and Sister Zelie Maria Louis of the Sisters of Life—a community of religious sisters whose mission is to protect and enhance the sacredness of every human life. One of their missions is to serve women who are vulnerable to abortion and give them the support and resources they need to choose life for themselves and their children. Together, they share powerful stories of hope, trust, and God’s unwavering tenderness. From “tea party” first meetings, to miraculous moments like the “gummy bear grace”, to the long-term accompaniment that continues far beyond a baby’s birth, the sisters reveal what it truly means to walk with women in love. They also open up about: How each discovered their vocation—including one sister’s unforgettable rap testimony. The deep spiritual motherhood at the heart of every religious vocation. What genuine healing looks like for women wounded by abortion. How ordinary Catholics—men and women—can speak hope into someone’s life. What it looks like when parishes become true communities of accompaniment. To receive updates on the podcast text CALLED to 33777.
