She was a convert from Methodism, and entered the Perpetual Rosary Dominican nuns in Marbury, Alabama, when St Jude Monastery opened. More details here:

Sister Mary of the Rosary, OP: ‘The Little Flower of Alabama’

When she entered the Dominican cloister, Lalia Jones said that she wanted to become a nun ‘like the Little Flower.’

What a tremendous story! I hope everyone interested sees this. The NCR article is only from a few days ago, Oct. 1st. I know someone in Chicago involved in the Church, I am sending this to them right away. There are so many stories we would never know. Very inspirational.
