Obviously, as a person who was raised Jewish, I have not had a lot of experience with Nuns. I do not think I’ve ever actually met one, to be honest, although I might have through my sister in law who works at a religious university, but I don’t remember.
So I find this blog fascinating.
Not only does Sister Julie write well, she explains well also. She has many entries about what it is like to be a nun in the today’s world. She’s also made it part of her remit to depict modern nuns from all over the world, with the weekly Nunsday, where she posts pictures of nuns doing, well, regular things. I especially like the picture of the two reporter nuns from Vatican City! Who knew nuns could be reporters?!?!
So I strongly encourage my readers (all 3 of you :)) to give her blog a go. You might learn something. I certainly have!
And OMG an entire post that doesn’t mention my pregnancy at all…darn, blew it! 🙂
I saw 3 Nuns when we were in Aachen on Monday. Which is more than I had seen all year up to this point. Seems Aachen is a very Catholic area.
