On the other hand this story was in the news this week in Baltimore:

10 Episcopal nuns in Archdiocese of Baltimore to join Catholic Church

By George P. Matysek Jr.
http://www.catholicreview.org/subpages/selectedstory.aspx?action=6750

After seven years of prayer and discernment, a community of Episcopal nuns and their chaplain will be received into the Roman Catholic Church during a Sept. 3 Mass celebrated by Archbishop Edwin F. O’Brien.

The archbishop will welcome 10 sisters from the Society of All Saints’ Sisters of the Poor when he administers the sacrament of confirmation and the sisters renew their vows of poverty, chastity and obedience in the chapel of their Catonsville convent.

Episcopal Father Warren Tanghe will also be received into the church and is discerning the possibility of becoming a Catholic priest.

(These nuns still wear a full habit.)

I am enjoying Ted Jrs remarks. One loves their dad and it is very hard to lose them.. I am reliving my dad’s funeral, which I spoke also during the service. I also did story telling & the reasons he was special. Ted is doing the same
