Convents, like monasteries, are little more than pious nursing homes these days. 

Perhaps it is a punishment for their sins.  

Then I've got something far worse than death by COVID-19 to look forward to, because I am quite confident my sins are greater than any of these nuns'.
It's worth noting that they all wear a fairly traditional habit (you can see their hair peeking out from the wimple) and a crucifix.

If you crave the fastest download speeds on your phone, Livonia is where you'll want to be. If you have the right equipment.
Verizon Wireless has rolled out 5G speeds in parts of metro Detroit this past week. They appear to be the first major cellular provider to bring the powerful speed on a regular basis to metro Detroit.
Verizon spokesman David Weissmann said parts of Livonia, as well as Troy, Dearborn and around the Oakland/Troy Airport in Troy near Birmingham and Royal Oak now offer 5G services. Those areas were selected, he said, as great places to begin because of larger open areas and other factors.

As am I.  Having said that, given these nuns were most likely in communion with the Vatican II sect, I think the bigger concern is whether they died as a Catholic.

That would be on an individual basis.  This dogmatic sedevacantist reference to Vatican II as a non-Catholic sect is misguided.  Unlike most non-Catholic sects, which have overtly broken from the Catholic Church, with the Novus Ordo it is very possible for someone to be in material error only, while continuing to profess the Catholic faith.  There are many souls who still have the faith in the Novus Ordo (certainly only a small percentage of the whole, but not a trivial number in terms of raw numbers).  Many of them either came to believe that V2 could be understood as in harmony with Tradition if you apply some hermeneutic of continuity, but far more only vaguely understand the errors of Vatican II and what the controversy is all about.

It's interesting that a lot of dogmatic sedevacantists are among the biggest enemies of EENS dogma, holding that it's possible to be saved outside of the Church due to material error, and then make zero allowance for the possibility of material error in the Novus Ordo.  And it is in fact in the Novus Ordo that such error is possible due to people believing that it's still the Catholic Church.  That is in fact the very definition of material error, where you believe something because you mistakenly THINK it is taught by the Church.  So even if you hold an error, it's not because you have the wrong formal motive.

So, at the end of the day, it's a case by case thing with each nun.  Some probably had no supernatural faith due to heresy and modernism, while others very possibly kept the faith.

My they rest in peace.

Pacem in Terris

On Holy Thursday in April 1963, Pope John XXIII promulgated the encyclical Pacem in Terris, “Peace on Earth.” The encyclical was re-leased two months before Pope John died. The first of four sessions of the Vatican Council had concluded and some considered the encyclical as the Pope’s commission for the remaining sessions of Vatican II. The Council needed to incorporate an agenda for peace, human dignity and human rights.

 Pacem in Terris was the first encyclical addressed to “all men (peo-ple) of good will” and not just to Catholics. The Pope used the com-mon language of human rights and not the specific language of Catholicism. It was the only encyclical published in its entirety in a major secular newspa-per, the New York Times. It is also the first time the Vatican gave approval for a composer to set the text to a Papal encyclical to music, a choral symphony that may be accessed at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Joe2N8kN3xEX

[...]

Pope John heralded a return to the nonviolent tradition brought to our world by Jesus Christ. “It is contrary to reason to hold that war is now a suitable way to restore rights which have been violated.” (127) Pa-cem in Terris set the Church on a course whereby a follower of Christ could never support war. Fifty years have passed and the Church’s work to build peace on earth remains incomplete. War strips all, but especially women and girls, of the dignity they deserve as human beings made in the image and likeness of God. War destroys God’s creation. The question for us now is how to make nonviolent peacebuilding our own personal practice as Felician Franciscan Sisters.

Virtual Advocacy Days
 
Posted on July 8, 2020

Interfaith Immigration Coalition Virtual Advocacy Days

The Interfaith Immigration Coalition (IIC) is hosting virtual advocacy days from Tuesday, July 14 – Thursday, July 16 to demand that Congress defund the administration’s harmful anti-asylum policies and restore asylum protections.

A series of legislative meetings are being organized along with an accompanying training to equip community members and advocates with tools for change. There is a current need for advocates to commit in AK, HI, MS, MT, OK, VT, ND, and SC. If you live in or know people in these states, please consider taking action.

The goal is to educate Members of Congress about the systematic destruction of asylum protections and the impact the administration’s anti-asylum policies have had on asylum seekers, immigrants, and unaccompanied children – for those on both sides of the southern U.S. border. Participants will receive:

Statement on Racial Injustice

Statement on Racial Injustice

The following statement was approved by the Leadership Team of the Felician Sisters of North America:

Quote

In the spirit of the nonviolent Jesus and the example of peacemaking handed down to us from Saints Francis and Clare of Assisi, the Leadership Team of the Felician Sisters of North America decries and mourns the murder of George Floyd and all our brothers and sisters who have lost their lives due to the violence of those sworn to protect all citizens.

We condemn the constant mistreatment of human beings based on the color of their skin while acknowledging our own individual complicity in the sin of racism. We believe that all human beings are made in the image and likeness of God yet acknowledge that racism privileges some at the expense of others.

We recognize that in the words of Martin Luther King, Jr. “to create a beloved community…will require a qualitative change in our souls. as well as a quantitative change in our lives.”

As Franciscans committed to continuous conversion, we ask God’s help to do all we can to bring justice, reconciliation and peace to our neighborhoods and to our nation.

And they promote Greta Thunberg.


May God have mercy on the nuns that died.
