Ask Sister podcast is a live podcast where you have the opportunity to engage with us and ask questions about nuns, prayer, religious life, or pretty much anything in between!

Here are some of the questions we addressed in this Ask Sister podcast:

  • With so many religious orders to choose from, how do I begin to make sense of them?
  • Is it possible to become a nun and to own an orphanage?
  • Is it true that not all religious orders profess the vows of poverty, celibacy and obedience? Aren’t these evangelical counsels required for religious life?
  • Is the nun in my soon-to-be published novel a plausible character?
  • What is too young or too old to become a sister?
  • Do I need a visa to enter a religious community in a country in which I do not have citizenship?
