[@carolbenke3078]

You are so inspirational to us when we met you at the Murphy’s s few weeks ago.

This is a very informative series. I’m not Catholic but have gone to Catholic schools all over the world and I truly enjoyed my education and the sisters.

GOD Bless Nuns! GOD Is Love.

[@rhodiusscrolls3080]

Yes but Love is not necessarily God.

[@carolbenke3078]

Mike and I were blessed ro meet you at the Murphy’s home.

What beautiful women! What a delight you sisters are

Would love to hear Sr Mary Jordan’s story, especially as I followed her briefly when she was on the internet as ‘She is Catholic’.

[@jenniferhoffman2715]

Me too miss her videos

[@rhodiusscrolls3080]

Should she be anything else...why ask,?

Where's Sr Mariana? Could it be that she could tell us the story of her vocation?

[@MissPopuri]

Reckless generosity? That sounds so foreign to me. My parents were always trying to instill in me the value of a dollar and not waste it.

Nuns talk nunspeak. Its a language that the strangers do not know. Cf. Song Galway Way.

What is true about pretending that you are in love with Jesus...? I dont get it..never will..never have.

[@hayleymarse2853]

They aren’t pretending… have you ever met a sister?

[@rhodiusscrolls3080]

@@hayleymarse2853 I have met nuns in my time. They wore traditional habits and plain clothes and bras when they wished to but i did not encounter in them this idea that they could be in love with Jesus. I find talking about Our Lord as if he is a date or the best boyfriend unworthy of anyone Christian and female. I think its wrong and should not be sent out.From any religious habited or wearing her own clothes. It leads to serious delusion surely. How can it be true,?

[@Lealea883]

@@rhodiusscrolls3080 good point. Now that you say it the metaphor does sound perverse. But then again the church is considered the bride of the lord. So on the other hand it could be apt.

[@rhodiusscrolls3080]

I dont know who first said Lord I want to follow you but save me from your followers.

[@dansedevie123]

The Church is the bride of Christ. This imagery is not delusional but comes from the Bible. See 2 Corinthians 11 . I promised you to one husband, to Christ, so that I might present you as a pure virgin to him. Also read the Song of Songs. As the Church, we are all the bride of Christ. Consecrated women remind us of this in a special way
