It’s difficult enough to get teens into the church on any given Sunday but thanks to God, there are teens who attend and actually look forward to Sunday.
A life dedicated to serving God and community is an incredible commitment and those who choose the path of vocation are truly blessed and the world is made better by their presence. I recently had the opportunity to visit extensively with the sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament, while on assignment for the Victoria Advocate Multimedia Department. Personally, as I journey along my path of spirituality, it is a blessing to be in the presence of such awesome women who have dedicated their lives to serving God. In a country that is becoming increasingly morally bankrupt, the contrast in cultures between the “Sisters” and the iGeneration are nearly incomprehensible.
For a closer look into the life of a nun, see the video Sisters of the Incarnate Word in the multimedia section.
