Link to the Why I became a nun article is not working.
The link works now, but the article says something about Episcopalian Dominicans that I don’t understand. Can someone explain?
Ms. Jaeger is an Episcopalian nun. The Episcopalians have a few groups of cloistered nuns modelled on Catholic orders. She is a member of a “Dominican” group of Episcopalian nuns.
Wow, I had no idea. That’s interesting. Thanks for the info.
What did you call her, Fred — “Ms.” Jaeger?
I didn’t think that orthodox Catholics fell for that radical feminist title — “Ms.” — which sounds like it’s short for “miserable.”
I recommend saying, “Miss.”
What a great story! Thanks for sharing it with us.
