  •  Sister Bethany, FSP, of the Daughters of St. Paul tweeted a couple of experiences she had in public throughout this Halloween season.
    She revealed one experience where someone asked her, “Are you a real nun?”
    Sr. Bethany’s full tweet reads, “‘tis the season.    / Got my first, “Are you a real nun? Or is that just a really good costume?“ of the year. 
    The Daughter of St. Paul sister posted a second tweet explaining that a child at Target pointed at her and asked his mother, “What is that?”

  • There is more;

    Her second tweet generated multiple responses. Users shared own stories about the religious in their communities. The Carmelite Nuns in Great Britain and Malta said a similar situation also occurred at a supermarket during the Halloween season.
    Here’s what the Carmelites wrote below:

    Could his be the beginning of another vocation?

  • Once on Halloween some costumed guests invited to a party next-door mistakenly tried to follow a  couple of visiting priests into our home.   :laugh1:

  • Sr. Theresa Aletheia Noble of the Daughters of St. Paul exploded Twitter with an epic response to a gothic social media account.
    The media nun and former atheist is most recently well-known for her devotionalRemember Your Death: Memento Mori Lenten Devotional.
    She’s also managed to evangelize and ignite the hearts of fallen away Catholics through this particular post. 
    The thread began with this post

    Sr. Aletheia then posted this response:

    Remember, be happy to be Catholic

  • By the way, if you want the real Goth, Here is a link to the Mozarabic rite as it is today. Please note that the original language is Latin and in its original form it referred to its identity as Gothic.
