Thanks again for the blog, John, it's so neat seeing the cool stuff that goes on in the Eternal City. Can't wait to go for a semester in January!!!; 10:53 AM

Here in the USA, and in pictures of Europe, I have not seen a liberal radical "habitless" nun from any of several hundreds of communities younger than 65-75!
That says something of their agenda and direction .; 5:20 PM

And these nuns were the best I've ever seen - each had a glow. They're from the Philippines and their joy was wonderful.; 8:02 AM
