What a real nun looks like

"What on earth is LCWR when it's at home?"

Sr John Francis RIP

No lipstick, earrings or M & S cardigan, just a wimple, habit, rosary beads and a crucifix - plus a good Irish smile...invincible!




And a supporting post from Christine at A Catholic View.

The nun that said "No" to the Pope

In the aftermath of Mary Johnson's piece about obedient mindless nuns (those who wear the habit and lead a life according to their vows), we have an outspoken nun who is now a Saint - Sister Angela Merici.

The story of her life is told HERE

                                                   Prayer to St Angela

Saint Angela, you were not afraid of change. You did not let stereotypes keep you from serving. Help us to overcome our fear of change in order to follow God's call and allow others to follow theirs. Amen
