St Peter’s Monastery occupies a vast chunk of the entrance to Mdina, rising up two tall floors, spanning its two main streets, with countless rooms, once accommodating 60 nuns, long corridors and a garden in its heart.
But all this is now home to one single sister - the last surviving Benedictine in Mdina.

The cause of this decline is Communion in the Hand leading to irreverence and ultimately loss of faith that the Eucharist is actually Jesus Himself: Body Blood Soul and Divinity. Since the Holy Eucharist is the source summit and the Very Foundation of our faith, how we treat Him directly affects our faith. Please understand, stand up for Jesus in the Eucharist, treat Him properly like He is God. Receive Him on the TONGUE at least if not kneeling and always go to confession that He may be received reverently and in a pure state of Grace. Please, in Jesus Name, I'm calling all Catholics to stand up for Jesus in the Eucharist. Fight for your faith in the Eucharist. Don't give up on Him who never gives up on you.

No, it will perish as the older members die off without the young willing to take their place. The increasing affiliation of ‘Agnostic’ and ‘Atheist’ in Pew research results every year proves that more people are walking away from religion, so the odds of people willing to take over these roles will invariably dwindle. Add onto that the scandal-plagued Catholic Church, and the odds of newcomers joining that belief system takes another hit. It’s the way of the world. Other religions are in decline as well, so it stands to reason that Catholicism isn’t immune to extinction. There have been religious groups that have died off in human history as their adherents died. This appears to be a real concern for that community with none joining her. The poor lady… I feel sorry for her.

The Nun Mdina gets a tree fruit bearing plants of various types at door step and the Mother plants those trees and also waters those plants and then the Mother feels when the cool breeze swipes through those plants that something is there more in life. The Mother takes her phone and checks those plants and then scans the live photo and then gets to know about those fruits. Then steps out in a attire of comfort and value for cloth and bun braid and goes to the Market and purchases similar fruits and while going to Market with basket notices many children playing rejoicing and near river side. Watches their smiles and the heads to the Market and then purchases similar fruits and then while coming back those children are not there and so decides to bake something delicious. And after entering it is same disciplined attrire and then bakes and shows it to the LORD. And the Son of Lord tastes it through the same breeze but the Mother is unaware and then is guided to step out in the previous attrire and then looks around for those children. Then finds the little girl first near a tree of massive strength and green fields and then gives the bake to the little girl. And then finds another path leading to group of homes and heads towards it. There the path on either side is having green fields and then encounters a little shepherd and provides the second bake and then gets closer to the group of homes and then finds a happy boy thinking something funny and laughing and gives the third piece of bake to happy boy. Happy boy became happier. Then enters inside

its amazing that in such a devoutly Roman Catholic country that she does not have in the least 5-10 vocations, in fact I am amazed that any monastery in Malta would be having vocation issues. Every day in my rosary One of the requests I always Ask our lady o bring to god is that he send good new and dedicated vocations to religious communities and seminaries ess in places were there numbers dwindle and are needed most. Prayer can be a powerful thing and can effect the world you live in and even mental state . As Roman Catholic Christans a important part of our lives and faith is to pray. Naturally we can not pray as much as Nuns and Monks do being most of us have many obligations in life but the lord gives us a few min a day tp pray for goodness sakes it takes only 15-20 min to pray the rosary once you get the hang of it !!! So pray !

Remember that she's a nun, not a religious sister. Aside from the fact that religious life is a vocation/calling, nuns aren't usually involved (at least not directly) in ministries beyond the convent premises, so their state of life is even less appealing to your average woman than the active life of religious sisters (these are the ones we see more often in everyday life, working "in the world"), in an era when there are many more options for women to serve in civil society as independent lay women. Still, I pray that the Holy Spirit revives monasticism throughout the whole Church. I'm sure the Lors is calling some people to this vocation, they just aren't hearing Him yet

"Be still and know that I am God." Keep this word safe in your heart Mother Maria, and not alone is all well, but all will be very well indeed. :)

The building is of historic value, i am sure Malta has a historic building preservation institution that could protect the building from demolition. I know of an old Dominican monastery that was turned into a luxury hotel/ convention space/museum. Not ideal, but it surely beats demolition.

¿Cómo es posible que dejen ahí abandonada a esta pobre mujer? Después de que ha dedicado toda su vida a la iglesia, a su órden y a sus hermanas lo menos que podrían hacer es trasladarla a un convento donde esté cuidada. La verdad no lo entiendo y me indigna mucho. Dejar ahí a la pobre hermana no es muy cristiano que digamos.

I feel bad for the ol’ gal. Maybe they can go out and recruit her some housemates. It sucks she’s there alone like that, but at least she’s got a cute pooch for company! Blanche Devereaux: I can't believe anybody would want to be a nun. I mean, "Nun" - the word says it.

That would be a good idea, introducing people to that kind of lifestyle and might consider to be a nun, but there are a lot of problems, a lot of I believe precious items are on display and tourists are unpredictable, specially the lack of people handling the whole building , It might also be a disturbance to their silent life.

I told others this too, This video was old awhile back too, you can hear that military Brother mark Peters telling me about the Strong’s exhaustive he even mentioned William Tyndale too! You have to listen to the message and when you can please. You can hear my voice too ! And read this again too please, **We do fall short with sins too Isaiah 64:6 kjv, romans 3:23 kjv, Christians can’t swear, Christians can’t drink beer, Christians can’t get drunk Christians can’t sin at all! We fall short with sins! Again the Bible translation will always divide us! They were never the same too! Read it again please, If you read 2nd thessalonians 1:8-9 KJV there is no list of unbelievers ! However I presented that list to Pastor Parrish 4 weeks ago! The holy Ghost through him told me it's correct that I even type it this way! 2nd thessalonians 1:8-9 KJV (It's for the unbelievers!!) Who are the unbelievers again? The Catholic Spanish inquisition bible believers, all men and women, high ranked popes bishops nuns etc. they all know exactly who they are too ! And regular Catholics men and women ! The Muslim Koran Bible believers etc The atheists the Buddhist the satanists etc. Again when we die or we all do! We get judged by the word of God anyways ! John 12:47-49 KJV, Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 KJV, 1st Peter 4:5 KJV and God's words never changes everyday too ! The Catholics never went by the legit 1611 KJV translation! They are unbelievers they fall in that 2nd thessalonians 1:8-9 KJV Same with the Koran Bible too, or those Islamic Muslims, etc. Again if you were to hear and see it in our one sided view of it all! In our perception!! The unbelievers in our 1611 KJV verses, they get casted into hell flames and the Lake of fire, it's worse than third degree burns all over the body, where it's weeping and gnashing of teeth, crying get me out Jesus, and it's for eternity no purgatory, and no kidding ! Luke 16:23 KJV Revelations 20:10,15, KJV Revelations 21:8 kjv It's definitely something like this about it all too ! Just the Bible versions divides us, man! They were all never the same to begin with !! Because it's true man! We do fall short with disgusting sins, even smoking cigarettes Christians can't defile! Romans 3:23 KJV Isaiah 64:6 kjv Right the Bible translations will always divide us anyways ! They were all never the same to begin with!! Revelations 22:18-19 KJV
