More Nun Awesomeness

Sister Maxine Kollasch and I spent our second day in Manhattan visiting with Sister Marie Pappas and Jackie LoFaro who star in and produce the “Pathways of Learning” radio show on The Catholic Channel on Sirius Radio. You may remember me writing about Sister Marie awhile back when she interviewed me for the show.

Today is a first for A Nun’s Life. We are trying out podcasting!

Because of our difference in age (Sister Marie entered around Vatican II, and I entered around Y2K) we brought varying perspectives to what it was like to decide to become a nun, wear a habit, minister, live in community, and many other things.

The article “Today’s Nun Has A Veil—And A Blog” looks at the phenomenon of young women entering convents today and how they are changing “the sisterhood.” I like the diversity of religious life that this article illustrates. There are so many ways to live religious life.
