NEW ORLEANS (BP) -- The phone call Alexis Leslie received from Calvary Baptist School in New Orleans last year began with words every parent loves to hear.

"I'll be honest with you, I don't know a whole lot about the Baptist religion. I'm Catholic," Leslie said. "I really wasn't quite sure what 'saved' meant."
