  • Through more than 200 years, the Sisters of Charity of New York have cared for orphans, taught countless children, and marched for civil rights. But the congregation continues to shrink, and recently after much prayer they made the tough decision to begin the Catholic congregation’s end. (May 9) (AP Video: David R. Martin)

      And that “attracted to” term shows that you are fetishizing being “nunned”. Otherwise you would feel a calling to a life committed to do the right thing

    The sisters of Charity nuns in New Orleans saved mine and my little sisters life. They were our family.
    For such a time as this 1960-1969.
    Much love and appreciation for them.
    See you in heaven❤

    The worst type of error is when every single step of the way seems the right one to take but at the end of the journey you find yourself in a terrible windswept place.
    That's what happened to these nuns. They have no idea what they did wrong.
    Vatican ll's reforms were supposed to take the Church to a better place by making the church more in tune with the times: “Aggiornamento” literally meaning "bringing up to date," was one of the key words used during Vatican II.
    Instead of focusing on the perennial truths of the faith it sought the counsel of the spirit of the times.
    The result is.clear to see.
    Extinction.
    Because the times are by definition, transitory while the perennial is by definition, everlasting.

    So many nuns and sisters do not wear the habit anymore so when they go out in public people do not know they are nuns or sisters they are dressing just like everyone else. and I thought nun and sister were not of this world.

    Removing your habits was a big mistake..Being removed from Catholic schools was wrong..Once the all the nuns left ..all processions to Mother Mary the mother of Jesus Christ stopped ..all of our processions in our parish church ⛪ disappeared..
    Catholicism stopped celebrating Jesus. Stopped honoring Mary. Mass went from one hour masses to 30 mins

    Very sad. Breaks my heart. The egarness you all had to reform did you in. Be egar again this time for tradition! If you go back, vocations will come in droves. Put on the cape and bonnet and get to work. The world still needs the Sisters of Charity. What we don't need is women living together doing social work. We need what you once were! Find the old habits, go back to community life, be again the Brides of Christ. Be what Mother envisioned you yo be! Give it another go! With Charity we must have Hope and Faith!
