Comments on: Papal Audience with Superiors-General http://anunslife.org/2007/05/09/papal-audience-with-superiors-general/ Catholic Sisters and Nuns in Today's World Tue, 07 Feb 2012 20:24:02 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1 By: Natty http://anunslife.org/2007/05/09/papal-audience-with-superiors-general/#comment-1486 Natty Mon, 14 May 2007 17:13:31 +0000 http://nuns2day.wordpress.com/2007/05/09/papal-audience-with-superiors-general/#comment-1486 Ah, so <i>this</i> is what our prioress was attending in Rome. I just made the connection. She related a rather humorous story of getting elbowed out of the way by 3 tall European Domincan Sisters in habits so that they could shake the pope's hand. Sr. N. was not crushed at the loss of the opportunity for direct papal contact, and was rather amused at the habited sisters who did things like stand on the chairs after the Swiss Guard had just asked everyone NOT to stand on the chairs. She did observe that he was shorter than you'd imagine from pictures you see in the press. Ah, so this is what our prioress was attending in Rome. I just made the connection.
