Raised in the Baptist church, Sister Odessa converted to Catholicism as a young adult. During her post- college years, she worked with the Religious of the Sacred Heart of Jesus who served as a life-giving role model in the christian faith and assisted with finding her place as a convert in the Catholic Church. However, despite personal doubts of race and socioeconomics, she didn't feel persuaded to join. Still feeling the call to be a part of a congregation, Sister Odessa prayed to St. Rose Phillippine Duchesne for guidance and found the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament. Sister Odessa made her first (Temporary) Profession of Vows as a Sister of the Blessed Sacrament, and thus celebrated her Profession of Perpetual Vows as a Sister for Christian Community on June 16, 2016.
