I found it interesting that these two "nuns" were going to pay their respects to Reagan!

Catholic ping! (please read my account)

Interesting, although they sound like Butch Cavities & the Fundance Kid.

What a disgrace to the seraphic St. Francis, whose name has been usurped by a pagan organization. Thank God for the fellow Legion member (and for your assistance)!

OMG! I was next in line after them. There's no way we didn't meet. I was with a tall woman with long, dark curly hair who chewed their ears off for a good hunk of the wait. (She's looking into becoming a real nun and was trying to evangelize them into the RCC.)

Silly me, I didn't read the rest of your article before writing my first post... That "Woman who was on fire" was the woman I was there with!

"I found it interesting that these two "nuns" were going to pay their respects to Reagan!"

I wouldn't be surprised if, while they're out here, these "nuns" aren't invited to give workshops and even homilies with the blessing of some bishops.

What a nightmarish account. As you discovered their true identity, I bet you recoiled. You are so much a person of the Sacred Heart of Jesus!

Doing a ping.

[Antoninus]

Sounds like "The Duh Vinci Code" is their Bible.

I am a Secular Franciscan and the thought of these pagans making themselves up to resemble Secular Franciscans or any othere religious/secular Christian order is sad and insulting.

These "women" need HELP!

[sinkspur]

It could have been worse.

You could have been surrounded by Jehovah's Witnesses.

I still say we could save some serious coin by getting those folks to deliver the mail.

[Askel5]

Thanks very much for the headsup.

Does anyone know anything about the Focolare Movement? I'm asking because they seem to be going in this same general direction as these new world order nuns.

I have a daughter-in-law who comes from a family heavily involved in the Focolare. Although they are good, God-fearing people I never talk religion or politics with them and so what I know I have learned through my son and daughter-in-law.

A couple of years before 9-11, the Focolare's founder began some sort of an alliance with Muslims. My son tells me now that there are Muslims, Lutherans, and at least one atheist living in community in Focolare houses.

Non-Christian Franciscans!? (Scary Incident While Waiting to Enter Rotunda)

Hmm. Non-Catholic Franciscans... I'll have to file it under my special section for Oxymoronic Self-Negating Deviant Sub-Cultures.
Along with American Communists, Pro-abortion Catholics, Jewish Nazis, Black Confederates, Male Lesbians and Honest Politicians.

Witches-,God bless them,mixed up.

[ladyinred]

How strange. I haven't heard of this lovely little group of new agers.
