Olalla Oliveros nun tale will leave you speechless. The story of a top model now becoming a nun is making the headlines. Spanish model Olalla Oliveros is now a nun who goes by the name of Sister Olalla del Sí de María. The successful model and actress decided to become a religious woman after hearing the voice of God.
About four years ago Olalla Oliveros who was a very well known model in Spain had an epiphany after visiting a shrine in Portugal – she wanted to get away from her stressful life and devote herself to God.
The top model who had big acting gigs in movies and on television, starred in several television commercials and had the pictures of her face plastered on billboards and on buses claimed that after spending few minutes in The Sanctuary of Our Lady of Fátima in Portugal she felt that it was time to leave her old life behind and become a nun.
Talking to local Spanish media, Olalla Oliveros said that she heard the voice of the Lord who asked her to follow him.
She said the interaction between herself and the almighty felt like an earthquake:
“The Lord is never wrong. He asked if I will follow him, and I could not refuse.”
Indeed she could not say no to the Lord, so the 36-year-old changed her name to Sister Olalla del Sí de María and joined the Order of Saint Michael as a nun.
No more catwalks, no more designer clothing and no more makeup, above is a photo of the former top model (she is the second from the left) in a blue sackcloth and a veil sitting next to her sisters from the Order of Saint Michael.
As stated above Olalla Oliveros became a nun in 2010 but never wanted to talk to media about her extraordinary story until now.
