10 Quotes: What Does Our Faith Say About the #SyriaRefugee Crisis?

Last updated on: November 21, 2015 at 5:54 pm   By Sr. Theresa Aletheia Noble

Cuban Dissident Who Wrote Poems in His Own Blood

Last updated on: November 19, 2015 at 8:40 pm   By Sr. Theresa Aletheia Noble

Since he had nothing to write on or with, he used anything he could find. Sometimes it was a carefully... Read more

Don’t #PrayforParis? Oh You Can Bet Your Bottom Dollar We’ll Pray.

Last updated on: November 16, 2015 at 3:25 pm   By Sr. Theresa Aletheia Noble

The always provoking Charlie Hebdo cartoonists have responded to the attacks in Parish with a cartoon calling for a stop to those wasting their prayers on Paris. The cartoon says Paris is about life, champagne and joy, not prayer. As if prayerful people are sour-faced bores. (They obviously have not met the nuns I live with.) So, let me get this straight.  Paris is about life, not prayer? Sorry, but prayer IS life. Padre Pio once said it is the oxygen... Read more

Am I “Good Enough” to Become a Nun?

Last updated on: November 13, 2015 at 9:28 am   By Guest Contributor

God’s love is gratuitous and unconditional. None of us are “worthy” of the kind of relationship with God that God seeks to have with us. God’s love is gratuitous; he simply wants to be with us, no matter where we are. Read more
