Breaking Silence: Inside the closed world of Carmelite Nuns
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ย. 2022
- Carmelite Nuns living a contemplative life of silent prayer behind the high walls of a monastery in Christchurch, New Zealand. This compelling short documentary provides great insight into the closed world of these nuns. For the first time, Carmelite Nuns share different, in such an intimate session, the things they go through on a daily basis, and talk about their past, hopes, fears, moments of joy and despair, men, and the feeling of living in enclosure for years.
Living as hermits in community, sisters are dedicated to a life of prayer, contemplation and study. They serve Christ and the world as a spiritual powerhouse, praying for the world and its needs. As with any powerhouse, the monastery is largely closed off to the public in order to keep out elements that would distract from the work that goes on inside.
The Carmelite Nuns are dedicated to a life of prayer, following the example of the Desert Fathers who lived on Mount Carmel in the Holy Land, especially the biblical prophet Elijah. In the 13th century, a group of hermits gathered on Mount Carmel to live a life of prayer.
Their chapel was dedicated to the Blessed Virgin Mary. Eventually, St. Albert of Jerusalem, at their request, wrote a rule of life for them to follow, which is the basis for Carmelite life today.
This is an exclusive inside look into the lives of Carmelite nuns. ENJOY.

Only the bravest souls can leave the material world and dedicate themselves to Christ. Praying for you all to stay firm.
She's really beautiful. Without any make up, filters nor camera tricks. What makes her more beautiful is that she found true joy serving God. Prayers for these nuns and their convent 🙏
Catholics are racist. 2000+ years of Romans abusing children and bleaching the world whiter. Thanks.🖕
It's ok to write it here. No danger of hurting her pride: she will not read it anyway... 😉
Our cloistered and contemplative nuns - the spiritual powerhouses of the Catholic Church. Only at the end will we know the graces obtained by them for the world. May this Carmel be blessed with many vocations.
Amen 🙏❤️🔥✅✝️
The faith of that last woman... "If heaven wasn't real, i'd be over that wall in 2 minutes." Amazing.
Sometimes, you can be married and laying next to someone and be the loneliest person in the world. So ladies, I think that you are probably more fulfilled, more alive, more filled with profound joy in your life than many of us who have “careers” and
Marriages and children and problems with money and paying bills etc. When God calls you -YOU have to respond and you all have done well.
Lorraine Hannon, the last sentence in your comment sums it All up .... Marriage, family, finances, bills, and stress.
It's better to become a nun than seeing this evel world
I am not religious at ALL, but I love watching videos about life in monasteries and abbeys. I find it so calming, peaceful. Love it.
Maybe you should go on a retreat some time. You might really love it. I was invited to go on a silent retreat once and was somewhat hesitant because, I've always been a chatty. I went and it was such a powerful experience. It was great to shed technology and all the other distractions of life and just be open to the experience. When I left, I felt deeply quenched in my soul. I was so relaxed and I knew the weekend had done me a world of good. For many years I went twice a year. My work schedule now, makes it a little more challenging to go, but I've been really desiring that retreat again.
Me too. It's very wholesome.
This is the life I want to live. Why hasn't anyone advised me about being a nun when I was in high school? Now it's too late.
i was just thinking this. they're an example of how humans can just be purely good and selfless. i don't need to be religious to admire how grounded and badass and compassionate these women are and hope that some day, i can achieve this level of peace.
@LaoSoftware Because it's not right for you. They have run away from reality, and left the suffering for real people to handle. Nuns aren't quite the heros people think. Far from it.
I've had 3 husband's. Your life is so much more secure with Jesus.
You can be married and have a secure life with Jesus. A lot of Jesus first disciples were married
@@KJ-lb4tjI believe the plan for us was to come to earth and have families.
@@sadiegirl1243 this is your believe not this nuns.
Amen and Yes.!!
@sadiegirl1243 I cannot have children. My life here is as someone to cares for animals. We all have a path to help others. Whether is be children or giving yourself to the lord.
What strikes me about all of the women in this video is how utterly genuine and emotionally honest they are, how comfortable in themselves. There's also a true spark of joy in them; their very smiles are different, as if deeper and truer than the smiles of most of the people we come across in our daily lives. I'm not Catholic but was educated for four years in Catholic boarding schools run by nuns and know from personal experience that some nuns are true Christians in the best sense of the word.
Agreed. I see it too. ❤
Hello vaska, how are you doing?
that was quite a spin. did it make you dizzy? these women are fucking brainwashed.
Yea nevermind how horrible they make others feel.
They live a life of privilege.
@@desperadodeluxe2292 How do they make others feel horrible? Is that your personal experience? I went to school with Dominican Sisters and they were an absolute blessing to me. They instilled in me a love of learning that I still possess today.
People who genuinely live the life of prayer, and are content to do so, are a true gift to this world.
Without works it's a waste
How are they a gift?
@@EvaMariaHein they uphold the world with their prayer for you and l:
Their love for Jesus is so strong, they gave up their place in the world; the outside world:
They fell in love with Christ, His Mother Mary and The Holy Spirit:
They actually, spiritually "marry" Christ, same as Roman Catholic Priests do:
They give us their chosen life: by the the daily Rule they live which comes with a discipline: their love for Christ, their love for each Sister, and their love for the world: their love for all humanity, whether, Catholic, Protestant, atheist or Hindu:
A true gift would be to be devoted to helping those in need.
a gift? they lock themselves up and dont do shit for anyone. they are victims.
I must say these nun were surprisingly candid and honest. I admire them for their commitment.
Yes this is true. The devil is afraid of cloistered nuns bec they snatch many souls from him through constant prayer.
There’s nothing like the peace that only God can provide
To be a Carmelite Nun was really my dream after i finished and became a doctor
I felt God calling me .i saw the sign and had that deepest desire..but my parents were sickly that time and i had to make a choice...but i think God understood and helped me to be where i am now...serving Him as i serve the abused children and women.
I have a 6yo son now and been solo parent for 7years because of failed marriage.
In my heart i never had the change of heart the desire to be like these nuns is still so strong.ive watched this video more than 100x.
Godbless you all sisters.Thank u for praying for the world
We all have our place in God’s world. Nuns are just on one path. Your work is holy as well ♡
May GOD BLESS your good heart ♥ liked these nuns 🙏
as a man and an ex-Muslim, from a very young age i was always have a very deep respect and gratitude for Nuns and sisters even i never seen one before, i'm 32 now and still don't know why.
Nuns are truly the unsung heroes of our society. Their sacrifice, dedication, devotion, commitment and discipline is mind boggling. They have save many lives (and souls) and don’t speak about their achievement. They expect no accolades in this earth. May they all be blessed for ever and ever?
Not one person on this earth can save souls. We wouldn't need God if that was the case. We all need Jesus. There is no replacing him. Thank God, because we all sin. There is none righteous, no, not one. Amen. What's going on in this video is not biblical. It's man made. If you want to be closer to God,hear his voice or do his will read the Bible. Start there.
@@andrenajones767please your taking it out of context and twisting literarly anything about the Catholic Church. Yes only Jesus can save souls but what this person meant is God saved souls through those nuns. How is their life of sacrafise not biblical??
Some do. Hopefully they are kinder these days than those who abused children.
@@andrenajones767 The bible alone (Sola Scriptura) is itself unbiblical. Jesus is the only Savior, but we are also supposed to participate in the work of salvation and we do that through proclaiming the Gospel and praying for and attending to the needs of others. Elijah lived as a hermit and Jesus described him as "The greatest born of a woman."
"I tell you, among those born of women none is greater than John; yet he who is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.” (Luke 7:28) Many of the Old Testament prophets would take 40 day fasts in the desert to focus on God and Jesus did it as well. This religious have dedicated their lives to Jesus and for humanity. Take it to prayer and perhaps the Holy Spirit will enlighten you.
@@andrenajones767 Jesus started the Church when he chose the 12 Apostles. They were entrusted with handing down the teachings of Jesus Christ. That is the origin of the Christian religion and Jesus himself practiced religion (Judaism) faithfully his entire life, so be careful of your "man made" criticism. Faith is a free gift given by God, but religion is what is practiced by those who accept the faith being offered. Observing the Sabbath and being disconnected from a community was never part of the plan.
I'm trying to get to know God more, feel his presence more, and I love watching these videos. When I was a child I wanted to be a nun but I went down some bad paths instead. I'm great now but always think back to that contentment and love I once felt sitting in church and singing. I hope I can feel it again one day!
You can feel it again, by faith, when you trust God by faith.....the finished work of the atonement when you believe, can give you what the Bible calls..."the peace that passes human understanding..." Maybe you're looking for something that's in your mind a bit big to find; but start by trusting God in the little things, giving thanks, maybe putting a value on your meals and giving thanks.....thanking God for your hunger and being grateful when it's satisfied. Those are all things that Paul called..."knowing this, reckoning this..." he was saying be mindufl and focus. Step out from your feelings and trust God, when you can. Feelings of peace are nice when they are there, but exercise faith even when they're not there, if you can. And, you can.
Nuns are real super heroes. I can attest that God listen to their payers. I was extremely sick for three months. Visit with 4 different doctors, tried about 7 different medications. After I asked the pink sisters to intercede and pray for me,within a week my doctor and I found a medicine that is helping me get better. I am so thankful and amazed by he Catholic nuns (in my case the Pink Sisters) and GOD of course! 🙏❤️
No, they are losing their time, what they do is not pray, that not biblical, instead of that will be better if they were preaching the gospel of Crist and helping the poor people
@@maricelfallas3271 They are doing a fantastic job of fervently praying and interceding for me (and others) with GOD. They are pure and sacrifice all, God knows that. This is the third time that the pink sisters prayers help me in a life changing way. This this last time I thought I was going to die, even a neighbor asked me if I was OK because I was extremely thin. The doctor that was helping me told me that she was running out of options and was about to give up on me. God bless me at last with a solution. I am grateful to the sisters for helping me and above all God for his mercy.
Regarding your comments, perhaps you can get closer to your local Catholic Church and help them with Catechism duties and dedicate your life to humanitarian causes. That will indeed be fantastic! ❤️ God's Blessings to you.
'Nuns are real super heroes' this is premium 🤣
AMEN! 🙏🏽❤ Continued healing.
@@desiderata333 Dear, you are so kind. Thank you so much and God Bless you!
My goodness this is beautiful. There is something in me that longs for a life like this, away from the world and with God.
God bless these nuns. I respect them and their calling. This sad world needs their prayers.
I find this super fascinating. I love watching documentaries on different monasteries...I could listen to the Nuns forever.
I am not a nun, but after several relationships I am now living alone and I am the happiest and most peaceful I've ever been in life. A few years back, I was devastated by the deaths of my two beloved uncles. That was when I realized that the love I was looking for but couldn't find in all the men I loved and loved me, was the love I experienced with them when I was little. Because that was pure and true love and that was when I felt the safest and most loved and cared for. So I realized that no spouse or lover can ever give that kind of love to me. But God can. And I feel now that God is enough. I feel His love everyday. So, in a way I understand what these nuns are saying when they say that anything they could need from a man, they find in Jesus Christ.
God is fictional character
@@hanygeorge8603
Your comment is not having the impact you’d thought it would have. 😂
@@hanygeorge8603 For some people is fictional for others is real, like me. For Him I was healed when I was about 7 yrs old in a supernatural experience. He was the one that healed my auntie's neigbor. She was paralitic for years but one day during prayer she standed up from her old wheelchair and started to walk. Also, He was the one that healed a blind from birth without pupils, Gemma di Giorgi, thanks to Padre Pio's prayer. The list is long. There are so many of his works around the world. So, that is why some people believe in God, because their experiences. We choose to believe is Him. Everyone has free will to decide what to believe or not.
What you wrote is very interesting…Something that a lot of women feel but never think about but experience that same longing. Glad you put your story here.
Do you think nuns mastrubate
God Bless these Women! Thank you for praying for the world!
how come they didnt pray to not let russia invade ukraine? they kinda suck for letting that happen. why are children dying from hunger? why arent they praying hard enough?
@@thedarkerknight2188 how come you're questioning them but you haven't done anything to help those people the audacity. please walk that talk.
@@thedarkerknight2188 Then why don't you pray for peace in Russia and Ukraine ? What's to stop you from doing that? Maybe that's God's call for you, in these times. You don't have to be a monk or a nun to pray.
A solid religious order. Standing since the 12th century ! Sainte Thérèse de Lisieux priez pour nous ! sainte Tereza d'Avila priez pour nous !
I truly admire the hippy girl in the past and Nun in the present, I felt peace and I felt contentment.
We have nuns in our family I love them to bits they are such honorable women I felt their prayers for me daily.
honorable? because they've never been stuffed?
@@thedarkerknight2188how dare you
I am not Catholic, but I deeply loves and appreciate these ladys, the pure heart you will found in them. and don't forget praying all the time needed a self dicipline. And Thank GOD we have such hearts in this crazy world of today
Praised be Jesus Christ our Lord! I have tremendous respect for these chosen souls. May God bless and protect them
I am also Roman Catholic since birth. We also have the monastic Carmelite sisters here in our province. Their monastery has a chapel and it is located in a hillside. A very nice and peaceful oasis. Whenever I visit the monastery, it rejuvenates my soul, knowing that the sisters are helping me in my prayers for my salvation and that of the whole world. Of course, attending mass in any Catholic Church gives me the same feeling, but, it is a bit different when going to a monastery and see the kind sisters going-on with their activities and having conversations with them, buying their home-made products, seeing them happy in isolation from worldly ways…
Crude jokes were made by people on the outside about the priests and nuns, but, I will have to remind these people, that there are also very good ones. It hurts me to see that the evil doings of a few bad ones somehow over imposed the good works of the entire good priests and nuns, which is so unfair!
Amen. Plenty of other denominations same problems.
AMEN 🙌🙏
Amen! And all walks of life suffer from that evil in much greater numbers. Doctors teachers lawyers cops etc etc etc.
I agree that just like any group of people, there's good and bad priests/nuns. I think the problem is that the church covered it, paid for people's silence, and just moved the culprits around. And yes, these things happen in all religions because they have to do with the fact that we are imperfect beings and nothing to do with the religion/faith. That is where I cast my judgment. In all that the church has done to cover these crimes.
In which province of Canada is this place please?
I spent five years learning and discerning a lay Carmelite vocation. It was a very formative period of time in my life. I did not make vows, but to this day, I know that God wanted me there and everything that I learned there I now share as a high school religion teacher. Their primary charism is prayer and I learned about the many different ways that we can pray and also about the mystical experiences that St. Teresa of Jesus experienced. I also learned from John of the Cross how to grow in certain virtues.
So sad, hopefully one day you can break free from the cult instead of indoctrinating others :(
@@lijohnyoutube101 Perhaps you are sad. I am not. I’m living a joyful and purposeful life with Jesus and his beloved saints. Go troll somewhere else.
There is an excellent series on the life of Saint Teresa but it is in Spanish. It is so realistic!!!!!! Like if God had made it himself!
@@loanicastillo3327 I’ve seen it and it is very good. It lead me to read her writings which were very informative.
Good for you, ladies - not for everyone. The joy you have found is also available in the "world" amongst our families and friends....and in life everywhere. Wishing you the best.
I love the honesty and genuine beliefs that these ladies have. I wish them all well whatever they choose to do. I did notice that they all seem to be very happy. Thank you Sisters
I can listen to them all day, grateful for great sisters & priests!
I love these wonderful sisters, and will pray for them, that they can remain loyal to their vocation. They are such an inspiration
Congratulations Dear Rev. Sisters Your outstanding services for uplifting society in the field of education nursing prayers, are remarkable God will award you graciously
So beautiful. I love it. So selfless praying for others. It's a beautiful life, very well organized and peaceful.
is it working?
@@thedarkerknight2188 There's no way to measure it, but it certainly does no harm.
Not a believer myself, but I really can appreciate the beauty in a life lived that way. Half joking, but there are days where I'd sign up for one of those hermitages for like, a year. 🤣🥰 Much love to the sisters tho. Even if you're not a believer, nothing wrong with putting more positive prayers/vibes out in the world.
and they pray for you, dear!
Lord Jesus Loves You. I'm a Born Again Christian, for me God is So Real. If ever you are bored type Joyce Meyer, she's an excellent speaker ❤
Deat Rev. Sisters. I love you and respect you for l commot been over seen the outstanding services that you are doing
for uplifting in the fied o
The devil goes running when the cloistered nuns pray . Prayer is their ministry it downloads GRACE GODS DIVINE LIFE 🙏🌍
May Almighty God continue to bless each and everyone of you sisters. Thank you for your sacrifice and dedication. I have pondered this way of life several times and entered retreats of silence for God’s direction. Some see this monastic lifestyle as running away- but in truth, it’s walking towards the epitome of God’s presence.
I have always admired the Carmelites . St Therese of avila was a favourite. God bless these wonderful sisters.❤
Hi how're you doing?
What a beautiful community of women, the joy comes through. You are all so down to earth and honest. God bless you all Sisters, and may you get many good vocations . Sr Catherine I saw the video of your Solemn profession. God bless you in your vocation and and may you persevere in your vocation hidden in His Heart. The World is so in need of this type of Religious Life. God bless you all.
Thank you for praying for us, for the world. I believe your efforts have enormous impact for us all.
To be a nun you have to be a very disciplined and dedicated person. I wouldn't be able to do this because I'm to much of a free spirit. I have alot of respect for the women who are able to do this. God Bless You All!🙏🙏🙏
Yes !
Karen, been married, divorced, and ungrateful kids/ so called family members.....I could do this lifestyle now.
@@user-yx1xe2vw6ppeople with such contempt in their hearts could never live the life of a nun
Bless our nuns around the world.
So Beautiful. Love to hear them talk about the Love of God. How much they believe in God is just so Precious....🇯🇲💓🌻🌹🦆🇯🇲
Being a biological Catholic (Catholic before I was even born), I grew up knowing about the Carmelite Nuns. I didn't fully understand as a kid, only what my mum told me and then finding out as I came into adulthood through my own research.
I've come to understand that not all Priests and Nuns are bad and cruel - there are genuine people who take up the mantle because they believe in a higher purpose - whilst there are a few who taint the vocation. And I know this because my uncle is a priest and 1 of the good 1s - and have met plenty of good priests and Nuns throughout my life.
They are prayer Warriors, and that creates an energy that amplifies out into the world and to the universe. I know firsthand the power of their prayers, my mum was a prayer warrior, as am I and I've taught my grandchildren the power of positive prayer.
My uncle always told me just because men and women dedicate their lives to God, they are still human and still experience feelings, struggle with emotions, have dreams aspirations and desires - those are human instincts that don't switch off - but they are worked through every day every year for the rest of their lives.
Thank you for what you do sisters 🙏🏾😑💜
The order itself might be corrupt, but there are genuine good decent human beings who believe in their calling, and that shouldn't be diminished.
Im exseminarian. I never blame priests or nuns. I know their hardships. There are few bads... but i never give attention to bads... rather look at the good and try hard to work for the church and christianity. 🙏

My life was saved as a baby by a nun at a birthing center who refused to stop cpr on me. I was born with out a heart beat, and not breathing. She kept working on me until God allowed me to have breath and a heartbeat again.
Is biological Catholic an actual thing or are you being cheeky? I cannot tell.
I really like the nun that was a hippy before.
She apparently was at a Black Sabbath concert!
JESUS LOVES YOU ALL ❤️ ✝️ 😊😊
What a great witness of faith. I heard a TED Talk where cloistered nuns ranked among the highest of the most satisfied people in the world in terms of happiness and fulfillment with one’s vocation
Praying for you today sisters 🙏 I’ve always wanted to be a Carmelite Nun but God had another plan for me. I’m now blessed with 5 kiddos and a wonderful husband but connect with my Carmel heart often. Love you ladies. May Christ warm your hearts today ❤️
i have always had a great respect and admiration for nuns
I Love their honesty and sense of humor. Their smiles are so kind and sweet. I would feel really really safe around them
Thank you for sharing this with us.💞 It is just as well that there is no TV, cell phones, internet-- the sisters are not corrupted with worldly junk.
One of the most beautiful stories! Our ladies, thank you. Your devotion gives us strength, my sister's in Christ bless you and know your calling is so wonderful!
To be a nun or monk in the way the word has become today is probably the best investment

In every religion, there are good and bad people. I am an atheist but I have deep respect for people who are true to their religion, like those sisters.
Wow, just beautiful and deeply inspiring. As a Buddhist/Advaita Vedantist, I'm alway inspired by those living genuine, committed monastic and/or contemplative lives. May they all realize the deepest peace and freedom :)
Beautiful woman! God bless their beautiful vocation! May we also be inspired to live ours, because we all have a mission in this life.
I love whenever I see nuns, they bring me such joy!
Amazing. Praying for all Carmelite Nuns. 🙏🏼
God Bless you, Sisters. Will pray for your intentions.
Yu look amazing xxxxxx
Superheroes without capes...
I love the Nun's and my favorite people ❤🎉
I wasn't expecting that. Pictures of the lives of the sisters before they entered. That is a really good idea for giving testimonies.
Thank you so very much for this video! I really enjoyed watching it. May God bless all those very beautiful women abundantly!!
This is the most peaceful video I have seen these nuns are amazing
What an interesting take on the life of the Carmelite nuns. Thanks for sharing.
God bless you all.🙏🏻
I have great respect for you all. 🙏🏻❤️🌹
Beautiful! God bless….
I knew Cushla before she entered Carmel. How lovely to see her flourishing.
I feel blessed to have been mentored and taught by compassionate Carmelite nuns in my growing up years. Thank you for your love and care.
I'm an Atheist but I think all of these ladies are fantastic and really genuine and down to earth. Good on them is what I say!
I used to ride my bike past the Carmelite's place every day on my way to school. I always wondered exactly what went on back there. As I got older I wondered if maybe that was the place for me. Turns out it wasn't. I married and had children. I can't imagine how strong these women must be to turn away from that gift of family and children.
I had a great aunt who was a Carmelite nun.....I went with my husband and our daughters to the Carmelite nunnery in Darlington, UK to visit my gt aunt, it was a wonderful experience.
Beautiful sisters ❤ we pray for you and all religious every day. Thank you for praying for us.
Thankyou for this excellent Presentation
Thank you for your sacrifice to live the life of prayer. Man will prey on man until man prays on man. I use the term man but I really mean humanity.
I live near a Carmelite Monastery in Buffalo, NY - What a peaceful and beautiful place.
They seem like really lovely ladies! God bless them 💛
Blessed are lives of those special people that sacrifice so much in the name of Jesus Christ. Alleluia, In the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen
You chose the better part. May God help you to live this holy life. May God accept your huge sacrifices.
I heard an exorcist say that our religious are sooo important and that their prayers are to help the Kingdom of God. Im sure we will not know the power of their prayers until our final judgement or purgation so please keep them in your prayers and help support them as best as you can. They are the spigot of many graces prayed on our behalf. God bless our sweet Sisters in Christ.
Lol
@@gael3525not very nice of you
This is a wonderful video. While I certainly appreciate very much their intercessory prayer...I cannot understand how they cannot physically have contact with their families. A friend of mine was a former Carmelite nun..her father was very ill and she was prevented from seeing him ...and he died shortly thereafter.
I was my mom's caregiver for many years and it was particularly wonderful to be with her during her last 6 months into God's loving arms into heavenly glory.
I think it would be a comfort for a dying parent
To have their child by their side. Certainly this would have been a loving example of Jesus love had she been with her father. And at times like this...the love of Jesus would have been shown to her dad and eased his transition into glory.
This is what I don't understand About the Carmelites.
I'm not a Catholic but I think the idea is the teaching that you love God more than family. There is a difficult verse in the Bible that if you don't hate your family, then you are not worthy to follow. This doesn't mean to actually hate them but to put that in comparison to God. Also, a follower asked Jesus for time to bury his father and Jesus said to let the dead bury the dead.
Your friend will see her parents again in glory. It is believed that this life is very short and we are promised the hope of a better future in glory where there will be much time to be together. Her father likely understood all these things and knew she was thinking and praying for him.
It is a difficult saying. Not many can accept or able to see to the future. Especially if we are thinking of pain of a loved one and comforting them at a difficult time.
@@kevineroseI just don’t think God’s call requires this. Not the God I know.
@@leslie3933 The God "you know" is a god of your own making. Scripture is very clear that God desires to be the highest priority in all of our lives.
“Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it." (Matthew 10:36-39) and "If any one comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple." (Luke 14:26)
@@leslie3933 God doesn't require it. It's an extraordinary sacrifice, voluntarily made for love of God. "Therefore, both he that giveth his virgin in marriage, doth well; and he that giveth her not, doth better." 1 Corinthians 7:38 (DRB)
I agree with you.
I'm not Catholic, nor am I a nun, but I am a Christian whose husband died now 28 years ago. Tim had a terminal diagnosis and although we were praying for a miracle, he also told me a couple years before he died that he wanted me to remarry if he died. I tried, I remarried twice, but they were both ab*sive. in the end I discovered that Jesus waz more than enough for me, that His love could fill that deep need for companionship.
Thank you for this video.
I'm an atheist and I'm still a fan of nuns. They want to do good in the world in the way they believe in.
Of course, not every nun is a good person but I've found most modern nurses to be lovely.
Great doc. I think the one younger nun kind of wants to leave. Hopefully she'll make whatever choice is best for her before life's passed her.
Just beautiful...God Bless
Sooo beautiful GOD BLESS ALL OF THEM!!!
Been married 33 years. Both of us seriously Catholic’s. We help each other. I do love her.
Many of my formative years were spent with the Sisters of St Joseph. I would never be a nun but I am so grateful to have those women in my life.
I also had nuns through most of grade school - it's not for me because I wanted children, but they were wonderful educators.

To then go on to have a big Catholic family with seven children (I'm the baby lol) and before my mom had passed they have been married for 61 years 🤗
I am ,at the moment , trying to discern my calling ❤️ potentially The sisters of charity in Halifax NS Canada♥️🇨🇦

Me Quarantined since 2020: what the...
Cloistered Nuns for Decades: piece of cake
😂😂😂 indeed!
Please I will like to ask prayers for my son convertion, to return to the Catholic church permanently. That God grant him peace, true convertion and for a Catholic young lady, wife humble and to show him how to love Jesus and our Blessed Mother. He is 25 years old, not a bad young man, but he can be much better if he could pray more, and attend mass, at least Sundays. To have thirst for the scriptures. Thanks you sisters to put him in your prayers, I will really appreciate it. Love you in Christ
We need more of what they have in this world. Not just GOD but a life of putting GOD first and practicing what you preach.
Amazing to see the before and after pictures of the nuns!
These women are the prayer warriors to help / save humans …..
