he did?! and i thought breaking his vows and disobeying his superiors with his impatience was bad enough! oh how i wonder if he made St. Augustine turn over in his grave..

:saint: Well the sisters with the red cross might be Hospitalier sisters of the Sacred heart of jesus,a spanish community,but i am not sure. Where was the photo of the sisters with the interesting veils taken?
On ebay they have a book about the Daughters of the Cross in louisiana ,and their old head dress was kind of similar to these nuns,except the top wasn't square.Go to ebay and click on books and then type in nuns to see what i mean.
yes there are Lutheran nuns,only I believe they call them deaconesses.They are mainly found in Europe.
There are Anglican Nuns in the US and have been some for a very long time.

Thank you HD for this information..........I'm glad that my pics arrived safely this time. The "interesting veils" pic was in one of my files but I'm sorry I can't remember where it is from. :idontknow:

I was aware that the Anglicans are represented in the US... Their UK communities are mainly habited. :biglol:

Does anyone know who these sisters are? The credit for the picture was "Convent of the Sacred Heart, Marseilles." I've never seen anything like them. (Couldn't link the actual photo and I don't have photo software)

These young sisters have unusual veils.[/quote]


this has me puzzled :idontknow:. are you sure that they are sisters? they look like they have plucked eyebrows and makeup on. or maybe they are just naturally beautiful.
