This is from the early 80's. I feel old!

many, many years ago (in the mid 80's) our parish had a vocation Sunday.  Among other things we had a film about the Roswell Poor Clares.  One of the nuns was the daughter of a long time parishioner.  I just loved seeing the look on Shirley's face as she watched her daughter on the screen.  It was very special.

According to the comments on YouTube, the monastery in Northern Ireland has closed---had only 2 nuns left when it did close. I don't know any more about what happened.
