These ladies were both active late in life. I find that inspiring.  It was
hard to choose, but I went also with Monnica. A person who is persistent
and able to persuade husband and son to convert has to be doing something
right.

I think both of them would be happy of the other won and wish her well, so
it was hard to choose. I finally picked Mon' because she's not well known
and like everybody and his brother knows Helena.  Wow. I didn't know she
was pushing eighty when she went to the Holy Land. Way to go, Hel' !!
