Funny thing how the traditional orders are busting at the seams...while the “new, improved, modernized ones” are virtually all reduced to a handful of elderly ladies rattling around in big, empty buildings.

Actually, it’s not funny at all. It’s very sad. I know some elderly sisters from a “modernized” order and they all know something went really wrong 40 years ago, but they have no idea of how to change it back.

I hope they can make something of it. The current “Cultural Center” is a sick joke of a museum.
