Catholic Sisters and Nuns in Today’s World

This magnificent refuge is inside you. Enter. Shatter the darkness that shrouds the doorway. Step around the poisonous vipers that slither at your feet, attempting to throw you of your course. Be bold. Be humble. Put away the incense and forget the incantations they taught you. Ask no permission from the authorities. Slip away. Close your eyes and follow your breath to the still place that leads to the invisible path that leads you home.

Oh, and congratulations on a job well done. Our Coraopolis, PA provincial home did the same in 2003. Read about it here: http://www.buildinggreen.com/hpb/overview.cfm?projectID=298&printable=yes
Thanks! This one was done in late Fall but MSNBC did another one this March … I just can’t figure out how to display it! I’ll figure it out one of these days and post it!
