Because the speedy deletion tag(s) shown below was placed very shortly after this page's creation, at a time when the creator may not have finished the initial entry, and the CSD criteria it was tagged under is not critical (unlike attack pages, copyright violations, obvious tests, vandalism, patent nonsense, etc., all of which should be deleted immediately) the administrator or other uninvolved editor who reviewed the speedy deletion tag(s) is asking, by this notice's placement, for a customary 10–15 minute courtesy window for the original contributor to address any deficiencies. The article should not be deleted before that time. This template should only be applied to short articles with insufficient content for assessment purposes – always placed above (and never in place of) an existing speedy deletion tag |

Olive May Pearce, also known as Sister Eucharia was born 14 December 1914.[1] She was made a member the Order of the British Empire in 1981.[1]
Introduction
In 1914, Olive May Pearce was born as the second child into a humble, working class family with no strong religious ties. Olive woke one morning at the age of 14 to a vivid dream calling her into the service of the church and eight years later, became a nun in the order of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart as Sister Eucharia. In 1981, aged 67, after four decades of services, Sister Eucharia was made a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) in a ceremony on Bathurst Island.[2]
Early life
Spending her early years in various towns in regional NSW, Olive moved with her family to the Sydney suburb of Enfield where she worked with her father in a cake shop for a short time before becoming a domestic servant, and eventually a nun in 1933.
