Here are some of the questions we addressed in this Ask Sister podcast:
- When is the right time to let family and friends know I truly feel called to become a Catholic sister?
- Are you ever too old to become a nun or sister?
- How old do you have to be to become a nun? Do you have to finish college first before becoming a nun?
- Can sisters and nuns travel?
- Why are the beatitudes important?
- Can a divorced woman become a nun?
- What do you pray when you are asked to pray for someone you don’t know and don’t know why they need prayer?
- What is the Catholic Church’s stance on yoga? Are practicing Catholics, including religious sisters, allowed to practice yoga?
- I’m a people person and really want a strong spiritual community. Any practical hints on how to deal with this hunger?

Can nuns travel??? Have you never heard the expression, “Join the convent, see the world”? (=^D
Just since I moved to New Mexico last September, I have flown to Wisconsin and back, driven to Arizona and back, driven to California and flown back, flown to New Jersey and back, and am getting ready to go *back* to New Jersey next week! Yikes!
I have also traveled to Canada and Italy to do some studying (and far too much sightseeing in Rome. I swear we took the train to Vatican City, then walked six of the seven hills of Rome back to our Generalate. Ouch!) I even got to go to Hawaii for the Big Island Liturgy Conference–wow!
And I almost forgot–I taught arts and crafts at our mission in Mexico one summer. Yes, join the convent, see the world!
