When I was in college, as an adult, I met a nun (no habit anymore, of course) & she became one of my greatest teachers & mentors. Thanks for sharing the memories.North of 25Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07927245858208029154noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244311262043750706.post-4455847358971754422010-03-29T19:41:22.762-04:002010-03-29T19:41:22.762-04:00I LOVE YOUR STORIES, DEBRA.

Love your nun tscotchkes! I was terrified of them. One time after mass, the nun seated next to me grabbed my arm as I prepared to leave the church. She thought I was escaping from Sunday School. I was in my 20s at the time!! I almost had an asthma attack from stress from her grabbing me!<br /><br />Oprah had a wonderful program recently featuring a convent in Michigan and women who had left jobs, fiances, etc. to enter the calling. It was fascinating. xoxoxoIna in Alaskahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07163454431322742148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244311262043750706.post-9140450366791842322010-03-29T08:59:26.406-04:002010-03-29T08:59:26.406-04:00Debra...I had a big smile all the way through this...Debra...I had a big smile all the way through this post. I am not sure which amazes me more, that I have not seen this movie or that you learned an entire mass in Latin! You did all that and went to Mass everyday...as our friendly Irish Priest says...'God bless you, my child'.<br />I was the oldest of six in 8th grade planning every which way that I could to escape from Mass. I am so impressed....and loved the post!<br />Now, to track down the movie:)<br />Jeanne<br />PS...thanks for link, I added it to my post:)Jeanne Henriqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07986759909478180763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244311262043750706.post-56164485886266606062010-03-29T08:34:36.066-04:002010-03-29T08:34:36.066-04:00LOL...

I grew up as a Lutheran (became Catholic shortly b4 I got married) and went to a Lutheran school up till 8th grade and wanted to be a missionary. I liked to and still the flying nun and the singing nun.
