Actually, it's one nun, and this one is special! Thus far, she has visited about 4,000 homes, gently inviting people to attend Mass. http://www.catholicsun.org/2013/07/17/catholics-matter-intrepid-sister-goes-door-to-door-inviting-catholics-to-mass/
I found it funny to read that article now. Just a bit ago, I half-jokingly told some Catholic ladies in a com-box (those life-sucking com-boxes) to give me their addresses so I could send nuns to their doors to lecture them on principles of modesty. (That "discussion," and the blog post where it occurred, prompted my own post on modesty). Someone in that discussion said there was no way the nuns would spend their time knocking on people's doors. I say, as brides of Christ, they'll do what they have to to bring souls to or back to Christ, as Sister Margery Therese Harkin, PVMI, has just demonstrated.
In a way, my "prayers" were answered. Of course, not in the way I had planned, but definitely for the better. If we want to evangelize anyone, we have to bring souls back to Christ, and the rest will follow, and clearly, Sister Margery is doing just that. And she does it right. We could learn a thing or two from her and what she does.
Well, that's all I can muster for now. It's getting pretty late here, so I am going to head off. Please check the link I posted and read about the wonderful Sister Margery!
Goodnight!
