I too was going to say good for her for keeping the full traditional habit!

I'm not sure if Sr Teresita is an OCSO (Trappist) or O.Cist, but who cares, really?

And he entered in his 20s, so he hasn't been in the monastery as long as she has. But after 70+ years, who really counts anymore?

:nun: :monk:

Eh, it's fun to do the research... Buenafuente del Sistal is an OCist monastery.

I thought Cistercians wore white habits? But good for her! What a witness!

White tunics with black scapulars, just as she has.

Novices will also have white scapulars, but she hasn't been a novice in some time!
