The Dominican sisters made headlines in February, when they made an appearance on the Oprah Winfrey Show fielding questions regarding their vocation and discernment, their vows of poverty and chastity, and their life in community.
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.
