This afternoon we hosted the Jubilees of religious profession Mass for one of the local communities of sisters. One of the nuns was celebrating 75 years of religious life. Can you imagine that? I asked her if she had any advice for younger religious. She said, "In religious life it's best to keep your advice to yourself." Now there's someone who has been around the block living in community!

Faithful, or even just thoughtful criticisms are always welcome. Uninformed rudeness to other posters or to the Lord and His Church is not.
I also reserve the right to reject comments promoting things like private revelations and fringe points of view, if it seems to me like they are being presented in a misleading way.
If you raise a disagreement with something I say but I do not respond, please do not feel slighted or insulted, or imagine that this automatically means I disagree or agree with you. It's just that I don't find the comment box to be a constructive medium for certain forms of debate.
