She said it was the divine help which directed her attention to the fact that the shrimp she was supposed to cook were not deveined.
“If I had left them the way they gave them to me I would not have won,” said Sr Lorayne Caroline Tinti, a member of the Sisters of Our Lady of Resurrection.
“Many people mentioned how calm I was throughout the episode, and I tell them it was because I was praying for Our Lord to help me get through it. That gave me confidence,” Sr Tinti told Catholic News Service.
