I was 16 and talking to a non-catholic friend before i realized that there was anything wierd at all about having been taught by nuns named “Sister Karl Joseph” or “Sister Edward” gotta love those Sisters of St. Joe
Ironically it was Sister Maria who was the real bruiser, she could lift a 6th grade boy off his feet with one hand wrapped around his shirt front
I know a Dominican priest, Fr. Jude Eli, whose mother joined a religious order after his father died. The funny thing was that you had a family where the mother called her son father and the son called his mother sister.
