From the lights of a theater to the flashes of TV studio lights, and finally, to the gates of heaven itself. The journey of Sister Clare Crockett, a former “wild child” actress who left behind a life of partying to become a nun, continues to inspire people as she’s now being considered for sainthood.
“Never in a million years did we think she was going to be a nun, never mind make her way to sainthood,” her sister, Shauna, told the BBC.
Crockett, who died during an earthquake in Ecuador in 2016, officially started her posthumous beatification journey with a special ceremony held in the Cathedral of Alcala de Henares in Madrid, Spain, last Sunday (January 12).
