One day they said simply, “yes” and everything changed. Erin and Phong Vu never could have imagined the life that would unfold from accepting the invitation to teaching with the Alliance for Catholic Education (ACE).
The first time I pondered a potential religious vocation was in first grade, during a school assembly. We had been asked to share what we wanted to be when we grew up, and I was having trouble deciding between becoming a Dallas Cowboys’ Cheerleader or a nun. When my turn came, I announced my plans to cheer for the Cowboys, and the thought of religious life didn’t resurface until several years later.
