Dentist, Social Media Producer and Religious Sister. All these titles could be included in the job description of Sr. M. Paula Blum, Schoenstatt Sister of Mary, ISSM, from Ecuador. The 34-year-old is in her final year of studies to become a dentist and has a passion for spreading the “Good News” via Instagram.“It’s a gift that I can do everything that I love. I'm a Sister of Mary – I left dentistry to become a Sister of Mary. Then I went back to it.
“When I entered the community, I didn't know that we were a secular institute,” she said, and explained that she was not aware that the sisters could also pursue secular professions. Then she came to the decision: “I thought that maybe I could do social media without a title. I could work, do courses, but I couldn't be a dentist without my diploma.”“I know people are usually afraid to go to the dentist and they see it as weird that we like working on people's mouths. That's usually what people think of us,” Sr. Paula explained. Yet she sees people’s teeth and mouths as “a treasure.
Her wish for the future would be to “have my private practice. Work at a clinic with other colleagues, and also help people who can't afford to pay for a dentist.”God has to be present where people are present Balancing her time between community life, university studies, and social media can be challenging, admitted the Schoenstatt Sister. “Time is my biggest challenge. I feel I have a gift, that I can do everything that I love. But managing time when you love all you do is a challenge.”
