This is a part of an article on the Poor Clare Colettine Nuns of Cleveland, OH, - [url="http://www.dispatch.com/live/contentbe/dispatch/2007/01/05/20070105-C3-00.html"]http://www.dispatch.com/live/contentbe/dis...0105-C3-00.html[/url] - that the Mother Abbess sent me that she clipped from the newspaper on Sr. Christina. Like I said, it is only a part of the article but it does have the 2 pictures that were published with it.

Mother Abbess let Sr. Christina have the roller blades in the monastery as a form of exercise and entertainment for the other sisters! Sr. Christina had said she knows how to fall so she hasn't gotten hurt yet but it IS more difficult to roller blade in a full habit!
