Rockstar Nun hopes to get people to church: “I came here because I have a gift and I want to share that gift.” ~ Singing Nun Sister Cristina Scuccia

Whoa! Trending worldwide is a Catholic nun who brought her faith to center stage–the stage of the reality singing contest “The Voice” in Italy.

Sister Cristina Scuccia, 25, belted out Alicia Keys’ “No One” and had the studio audience on its feet.

“Yes, I am truly, truly, a sister,” she told the judges, who were equal parts delighted and shocked.

“I came here because I have a gift and I want to share that gift. I am here to evangelize,” she said, reports Catholic News Agency.

“If I had found you at Mass I would always be in church,” said one of the judges, Italian rapper J-Ax. Which is exactly Scuccia’s point.

Scuccia also said that she now hopes her boss, Pope Francis, will call her.

The antiselfie thinks this isn’t just a cute story.

The antiselfie hopes that Sister Cristina will send the message that being nice, kind and of service to others, is actually the ULTIMATE cool!

What’s cooler–being self-centered, or being compassionate and kind?
