Two important things to do are to pray regularly and be of service to others. Community is also an important part of being a nun. If you can, associate yourself with a faith group so that you have some support. If you continue to desire to be a nun, do what you can to improve your financial situation. Blessings to you, Sherle.

What can I do to live my life as closely to the life of a Nun without actually taking official vows. Sincerely, Sherle Dear Srs,

I desire to become a nun, but my financial situation prevents me from joining. What can I do to live my life as closely to the life of a Nun without actually taking official vows.

Sincerely,

Sherle

The word I chose was simplicity. So your post was very interesting for me. I'm in the process of decluttering my stuff - some things are hard to let go of, but generally I get a feeling of liberation. If you want to read more about my idea of simplicity, I've written a post on my blog. Keep up the good work, Sr Julie. I really enjoy your blog.
