It’s one of the bad results of “Vat II” that some priests must cook and clean for themselves, no other help being available or offered …<br />And it is a huge loss to society too. Women and girls know that they can rely on nuns (no offence to the priesthood of course) but it’s special when lay women and religious can be together.<br />When I espy a sister, I always try to greet her/ them, nuns have especially warm smiles – for everybody.<br />Jeremiah Methuselahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15344139605953558862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-49665659296502744022016-09-20T20:53:14.942+01:002016-09-20T20:53:14.942+01:00Satan gets us to defile the sacredSatan gets us to defile the sacredFr Ray Blakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05584140126211527252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-42043257581357878012016-09-20T20:24:34.210+01:002016-09-20T20:24:34.210+01:00This was very beautiful!

Maybe Theotokos will send them strength to still visit you now and then?<br />I read that Britain is said to be "the Dowry of Mother of God". I must admit, for my part, even certain pagan aspects about it (only the non sexual abstract stuff) seem simply beautiful to me. It's sad actually Henry the 8th did not want protestantism, yet his actions led that now UK is no longer ruled by a local dynasty. I do believe that when God admonestates us it's for pedagogical reasons, so we can see, but right now the light is so dim. The world has truly gone its own way .. away from Him and His Angels.<br />Father I saw some porcelain pieces with the Nativity scene, as Orthodox we're not allowed to use them but I was thinking... yet Arch. Gabriel had boobs on His body. Why do we do this? Aren't we yet still alive today because God and His Holy Angels protect us from Baal? Why offend tha hand who feeds us? <br />Just saying...Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09224676979690855135noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31069882.post-81929748187162572762016-09-20T18:32:38.240+01:002016-09-20T18:32:38.240+01:00That was lovely!

I am sure that you will indeed miss the Sisters after their departure. Where are the young women of today who do not see any point in following a religious vocation?!
