Good nuns

Like many Catholic girls I wanted to be a nun when I was young. We fret and scream about the problems facing the priesthood (we ought to pray more) but many of us have forgotten the awesome power to do good or to do evil that is in the hands of every nun, especially those who teach. Whenever the latest Catholic news gets too grim I refresh myself by checking out the web site of one of the tradional orders. Pray for these sisters and drop a donation in the mail to them if you can.
