- The Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles, a secluded group of nuns living in the farmlands north of Kansas City, have become the unlikely rock stars of traditional classical music. Tracy Smith takes us on a first-ever look inside the place where it all happens.

"We don't care about the charts, we don't care about popularity. We care about souls."
The world needs this message so much! You're not made real in the imaginations of other people but in your love of Christ and how you express that in your love for others.
Yes, that´s true, charts are not the world, but these charts and popularity allow them to pay their debts...
I love this.
It's only through silence that great minds are made.
Only in silence alone that we hear God's voice and define His will for us.
May God grant these nuns a place in His saints.
Amen
I believe her. They are the happiest people on the face of the earth. Materials can’t buy happinesses, just the opposite.
Amen !
I know some nuns. Some are cloistered. "The walls are not to keep us in. The walls are to keep the world out". I love them. Ave Maria!
Amen to that!
Thank you CBS for doing this documentary and posting it. Our sick, desperate and evil world needs more programs like this for it's hope and salvation!
Amen
I find these nuns absolutely amazing in their joy and faithfulness. She who sings, prays twice. Sic transit gloria mundi.
So passes the glory of this world.
One of my favorite quotes.
"We don't care about popularity, we care about souls". Amazing 😭❤🙏
The more people you have singing together (despite their voices), the better music sounds. That's how harmonics work. But yes, they sound great, even with a few people.
Most Precious Blood of Jesus Christ save us and the whole world Amen
Their angelic voices gave me goose bumps. What a beautiful gift.
How nice to hear them laugh all together like little angels. Awesome kind of happiness!
What a peaceful life...May the Lord bless them all, in Jesus' name!
Amen
AMEN 🙏🏻
Amen
Amen !!!
Amen. It seems like they work hard doing heavy chores and practicing for five hours a day singing. I wish I had their joy…
They are not missing out, I'm missing out.

Agreed! My name is June as well.
EXACTLY... it is we who are locked out; not they locked in.
Wow.
I grew up in the company of Sisters and served them as an assistant in CCD classes. The joy ALL Sisters feel is palpable and fills them and those who surround them. God bless you Sisters and please pray for our world.
They are just so incredibly beautiful!
I was sponsored by a benedictine sister - Sister Godeharda. She used to live in a convent full of old German nuns. Sister Godeharda was one of the younger and healthy ones. So, she took care of the sick and dying. I was privileged to visit the convent and helped Sister to walk the sick in the garden whenever I was free from school schedules. Benedictines do not eat much. So I ate all their food hahahaha. The Benedictines sisters sing like angels anywhere in the world. I love them sooo very much.

I've been searching for Catholic acapella artists for weeks until I accidentally stumbled upon them in Spotify. There is something about their voices, their vocation and their faith that penetrates the soul. Glad to stumble upon this feature video by chance. Praying for your continued success!!
I am honored to know these beautiful sisters. I was privileged to play the organ for the solemn profession of this community a few years ago. They are amazing witnesses to the tremendous power of God in the midst of a world filled with evil.
+J.R. Zippie what exactly does that mean?
What does that mean? He is saying that by being locked up in that compound they miss out on truly redeeming experiences, like trolling TH-cam video sites making snarky comments. Come on, those nuns are missing out on what makes life worth living!
Have you ever met a contemplative nun ( a Benedictine, a Carmelite, a Poor Clare...) personally? If not, I advise you to do so. These cloisterd houses do allow visits. These Sisters (or, indeed, Brothers - Benedictine, Carhusian etc.) do not hide from the world. Those who enter the convent (or monastery) in order to flee the world find it impossible to bear and do not last long in there.
And the reality of human experience is the same, whether you live it within the noisy environs of, say, downtown NYC, or a serene calm of a Benedictine Abbey. They carry all of us and all of this world's problems to God in prayer, something many of us do very poorly and infrequently. Instead of being snarky about things we only half understand we should pray ever more fervently:
O Lord, grant us priests!
O Lord, grant us holy priests!
O Lord, grant us many holy priests!
O Lord, grant us many holy religious vocations!
Connecticut Yankee Apparently then u don't know what makes life worth living. It's having Jesus as Lord & Savior of your soul & living for Him since He died & rose for us!!! TYJ.

@@legolasdbk Amen amen 📿🙏
I will always pray for those who feel the call to the consecrated life. To give their entire lives to Jesus Christ, it is an admirable thing to do.🙇🙇
What a wonderful way to put it. Perfectly said.
Made my day as the Nun Said there is more to life then what the eye see's. Food for thought. God bless
Te pongo yo tambien en nuestro ministerio de matrimonios unidos para cristo en ORACION para que Dios te conceda ese Don.
Thanks I feel called to consecrate life please pray for me
I like their humbleness. A guide for all of us.
Thanks be to the LORD for solving their debt problems according to HIS Will. ✞

How beautiful! The more you see of this world and it's supposed 'freedoms', the more you can realize these women are living the best of all possible worlds. Bless you, sisters! Pray for me.
Remarkably respectful, coming from a news outlet like CBS.
I'm not a religious person but my heart goes out to these holy women.
2020 happened. Are you a believer yet? ❤️
Angels on earth! Praise God for their ministry! Thank you, Sisters!
why ain't you with them?
+J.R. Zippie please stop being such a rude person.
I agree 💯☺️ God bless them as well as you too...🙏🏻
''Beauty touches the soul and heart..."
lovely! their joy is visible.

I have their CD, "Advent at Ephesus". Just beautiful. Sound like angels are singing in my house.
I'm going to get the CD myself...
God Bless you, and please keep praying for us
Beautiful music from such sweet souls!
Good Bless you.Lovely Angle voices.
It's good to be Catholic! =) Mother Superior explained everything very well. What a great witness and well made video!!!
Blessed Mother, agree. A Protestant friend once invited me to their congregational gathering but I feel something is missing. I only see a stage with their pastor reading a passage of the bible, a rock music band, and mass hysteria with all the shouting....I have nothing against my protestant friend because she does live a good Christian life but as a Roman Catholic I do miss what was in the Sunday Mass like the Holy Eucharist which is culmination point of the mass, the solemn prayer, the music. And, outside of the Holy Mass is praying the Holy Rosary of the Blessed Mother which reminds us to be always mindful of our spiritual life and to always pray and follow Jesus Christ.
@@sheilatuano9633 Criticises the church then goes on to say they have nothing against them. Bravo, bravo. It's not a rock band. It's not just a passage. It's not just shouting. Check your heart. It's okay to prefer a Roman Catholic traditional way of worship without criticising the other.
@@sonwabisedzidzi I agree. It is easy to praise what we are familiar with. It might become a challenge to praise what we are not famiiar with. It needs the capacity of a loving soul and an open mind to recognize the worth and lived out love of Christ in cultural and spiritual forms of worship which are not one´s own favourits.
Thank you sisters for your heavenly music. I have found how much I love Gregorian chants and Catholics choir songs. The sound of singing in churches truly sounds like being in heaven, and I listen to it every night before sleep and it washes my soul clean of all earthly sadness. Bless you for your commitment to the Lord and for bringing heaven to earth!
I have been blessed to watch and hear. May God bless these sisters in Christ. Amen.
Beautiful voices used for the Glory of God. They are so happy, I totally understand that, they commune with God and in Him only, can we find true Peace and happiness. The world has nothing to offer. Thank you Sisters for your music from heaven and may God bless all of you.
This Mother Superior is literally living my dream lol: a consecrated life spent making sacred music. So beautiful!
Loved when the Interviewer mentioned to the Sister , about others thinking “poor Sisters, they are missing out”. In my humble “maybe” wrong opinion , we are the ones who are “missing out”. We get too busy leaving God out of our lives on a daily basis more than not .
For myself I try not too , but I do fail . I’m not speaking of daily prayer. I’m speaking of living with God 24 , 7.
I’m so happy for our Catholic Nuns , that through their sacrifices made , then living in Faith , serving God , we too inherit a Blessing because of our Catholic Nuns . I do believe this.
In Jesus Most Holy and Blessed Name , Thank You . ♥️🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🌹
God's joy and peace is in their voices. Their Mother Superior really seems to exemplify this.
Excellent documentary CBS, more like this please
They sing so beautiful! 💖 🍃
This brought tears to my eyes
So BEAUTIFUL
They are truly Angels sent from above 😍😍😍😢😭😔😖
Can see the joy in her eyes and expression. Praise God for their calling. I've too been praying that a record label takes a look at my own compositions which I can say honestly us very good and get the break I'm praying for. Hope the wonderful sisters pray for my success.
Praise the Lord! Beautiful music coming from beautiful souls! I am amazed at their angelic voices.
Beautiful, peaceful.
Dear sisters, I paused the video added all your albums to my Catholic playlist on prime music. I just love them all. :)
blessed are you among women
they sing good. they have a beauty which the world will never have
So beautiful.... God Bless these sisters....
These Sister's are so lovely, and so amazing!!!❤😊
There happyness shines from there faces.
Blessings to you all, my Sisters🙏
Wow! Great story! Thank you.
“We don’t care about the charts, we don’t care about popularity” ❤️❤️❤️
God bless you all.
I needed this. God is good. What beautiful music. Blessed these glorious servants of God.
Beautiful
What a great story. Thank you!

Music is soul itself.
You can neither see nor touch but you feel it like the wind and there is magic when love is involved in it.
What a Blessed Sisters 💖
I think you Sisters are such a treasure. God bless you and thank you!!🙏🙏🙏❤💕
This reminds me of the 5th decade of the Joyful Mystery of the most Holy Rosary. Mary and Joseph find young Jesus in the Temple after he had been missing for 3 days.
Jesus exclaimed, “Did you not know I must be in my Fathers house?” They found that difficult to understand. Like a lot of people in this world and commenters here who don’t understand why others follow the consecrated life.
They comment and say these nuns are missing out! Yes they may be missing out on material things but they will truly gain the Kingdom of Heaven and be with our Father for Eternity.
Please ponder in your hearts what you find difficult to understand and bring it to Jesus. He always knows the answer.
Lastly, the Blessed Mother is a powerful intercessor between you and her dearly Beloved Son, Jesus. Pray the Rosary or Chaplet of Divine Mercy everyday and your life will start to change.
God is good all the time.
God Bless, Mary
MilitaryBunCover, Amen.
Truly blessed lot, GOD CONTINUE TO BLESS YOU ALL IN ABUNDANCE, PRAY FOR OUR WORLD
May His music Fill this tired old world, relieve human suffering, change hardened hearts, restore the Faith of our Father's .. and Renew neighborly LOVE...WORLD- Wide... Amen
Amen 🙏
Beautiful music!! I hope you continue to make beautiful music. God bless you!!
love it sound like a angel
Peace, innocence, delight, joy, beauty, are just a few adjectives that spring to mind when watching these nuns.
Plus their singing is not just angelic, but is a testimony of faith in action. God is faithful!
Thank you. I needed this.
Those women have figured out the purpose of life. They know exactly what they are doing and who they are doing it for! May God continue to pour out His blessings upon them.
So lovely
Thank you for dedicating your life for us, thank you for all your prayers .God Bless you sisters
WAW!!! Love this!

The voices of these ladies are so soothing, beautiful, and serene. This proves that Classical music is the greatest of all-time. Thank you so much for the great music, and keep up the amazing work ladies of St. Benedict.
What an amazing chorus
What a beautiful sincere smile
"taking is all but forbidden" Not true. It isn't that talking is forbidden, silence is practiced. There is a difference.
Exactly, it's that huge difference between choosing something and having it forced upon oneself. Being forced to do something makes a person feel helpless and weak, choosing something (even choosing to endure something) gives a sense of control and can make someone feel powerful.
@@Panbaneesha , I see where you're going. Nice try.
WELL THATS HOW SECULAR MEDIA WORKS.
God Bless U All
THANK YOU Lord for ALL Consecrated Religious and our Clergy. We need them so much.
The joy in their voices!!!
I would trade my life with theirs😍😍😍
You can be like them, as you are, but it will take time, patience, and practice. Good opportunity to try is, during Lent. Or on weekends.
What is stopping you?
@@chloepresley2000 age limits.
I wish y’all would record your heavenly voices within the acoustics of a Middle Ages gothic cathedral!
The nuns singing are Angels on earth! I love Gregorian chants as well. I find myself feeling like I am in heaven.
🌹 SAINT THERESE IS INCREDIBLE ! 🎄❇️
Please lets all take note of 6:03 - 6:27.
Benedicamus Domini. Deo Gratia.
very nice.
We all would want to experience this "pure joy". A serene and fulfilled life. Living the life of freedom to enjoy God's nature.
I love this so much!! And their music is heavenly!
Well done interview, loved it!
God Bless these nuns. They give their life for our salvation. Thank you sisters
Just know something Sweet Sisters...your sweet voices have accompanied me many times to Adoration and on many Sorrowful Mysteries and Seven Sorrows Devotions. Your voices (3:33) take me to the feet of Mercy:(....'by my thoughts and sins I nailed Him, yet He bleeds and He dies for me. Jesus Lord I ask for mercy, let me not implore in vain...' No, I think it is the rest of us who are 'missing out' on 'something'...I'm there in heart with you. To God be All Glory. Quia est enim similis ad Deum???!!!
Do you know the name of that song (voices 3:33), please? Thanks
Quỳnh Nhã God of Mercy and Compassion. The Benedictines of Mary.
I Am the Way, the Truth and the Life, says the Lord. And these consecrated women (nuns) emulate it beautifully. A sister is belongs to an order that is out into the world, like in schools and hospitals. A nun lives a solitary life in a convent or monastery praying and doing God's work. There is a difference in their vocations.
Wonderful. I wish I had an ounce of what they have. God bless you Sisters
Amen!!!
Love listening to our Sisters singing ❤God bless all our Sisters who dedicate their life to serve our Lird🙏🙏🙏
I just love the nuns
So touching their voices like angels singing from heaven 🙏🌹❤️❤️❤️🎵🎤🎶💙
God Please bless all that have to give deep with in their Hearts to give to their brothers and sisters in of greatest needs. Angels of Mercy please send out Messages to all around the world to give😇😇😇
Very powerfull
God Bless these nuns. They give their life for our salvation. Thank you sister
Jesus Died for our salvation....no nuns or anyone else can help help in that department....
+J.R. Zippie yeah but they pray for people like you who refuse to believe....
+J.R. You are missing out on so much when you place God in a box.
I admire them and their devotion. However, while intercessory prayer is important we must never devalue the salvific work of our Lord at Calvary. It, along with the Last Supper, is the basis for the celebration of the Holy Eucharist. Read the Epistles of St. Paul. Read the Catechism. That's not a Protestant view that's a universal Christian belief obligatory upon RC as well.
J.R. Zippie Amen bro!
Jessie
Quite Amazing!! So glad they are happy with this life...and I love their music....Thank You.
How beautiful , truly divine. An example of the Lord's joy manifested, these Sisters are a pure channel for Him. Thankyou for this. Aum Guru Aum.
heavenly 🙏👼
These are the original feminists! They are beautiful peaceful spirit filled women! One should be so blessed as to be filled with the Holy Spirit as they.
Amen!
They are Disciples of God as we all are in our Faith of spreading the love . No labels of feminists just living in God's way of not Judging or Labels we are all God's children no division 🙏
Some aspects of this are nourishing to the soul
Great work sisters, bless ya!
