Nunday – Sister Christopher Margaret

in blog post, catholic sisters and nuns, nun images and stereotypes

Happy Nunday! We had a great podcast last night on consecrated life and now we’ve got Nunday! God is good.

Today’s picture and story comes from Sister Catharine Mary Perry, OP, a Dominican Nun of the Monastery of Our Lady of the Rosary in Summit, New Jersy. She writes, “Here is a photo for Nunday! It’s not a Dominican but a Sister, Slave of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.”

“This is Sister Christopher Margaret, and I’ve known her for 33 years! I was a little kid when she entered the convent and she and the other sisters of the community have always inspired me by their love for God and our Lady, their dedication and their love for joy and fun! They were my teachers in school.”

“This picture was taken last year at their fall YARD SALE and BAZZAR which raises funds for the school. Sister CM is one heck of a corn dog maker and as you can see by the photo was more than happy to show ‘em off! It was DELICIOUS!”

The Monastery of Our Lady of the Rosary is about five minutes from my house, and I used to be youth minister at the UCC church right next door. :) I love their blog (and I sent it to the pastor of the church next door – he liked it too!)
