Would You Cross An Ocean And Become A Nun?

Already did... It's not such a big deal as it may seem, actually it's mostly avvesome.

I'm willing to cross an ocean...but I recognize that there are extra challenges in adapting to a religious community of a different culture. It's not that it isn't a beautiful experience, it's that...there's that extra dimension of being a 'foreigner' in the new culture. So, as long as folks are aware of that, I think it's great for the universal church to have multi-national convents .

And to add to the 'been there, done that,' list, we have our very own Sadora! She should be coming back for a home visit soon, so hopefully we'll get to hear what she thinks of following your vocation across an ocean.
