Nuns On The Bus Tour
http://video.msnbc.msn.com/the-last-word/47884211#47884211I may be bombarding you a little in the next couple of days. I am heading on a trip to prepare me for a new ministry (started another unrelated one this week too!) and am going to a training workshop (all alone!) to New Orleans! I am tentatively excited! But will really be happy when I get to my group…so not used to traveling alone by plane to the deep south! ha! Anyway, in the meantime, something really big is happening, a push back, a reckoning and I am loving it. When true righteousness is challenged, only good comes from it. Pray for the conversion of heart that Paul Ryan and his com padres need. In the meantime…video above and article below! It is all about credibility!!http://www.desmoinesregister.com/article/20120619/BASU/306200038/0/NEWS/?odyssey=nav%7Chead
Thank God for the nuns who walk the talk. We have similar concerns in Canada and speak out consistently against cuts to the poor but there is nothing like Nuns on the Bus here. Just recently the doctors protested across Canada because the government is reducing benefits to refugees. We must always remember Matthew 25 and look after the poor. Thanks for keeping us up-to-date on this. What has been happening with the Vatican is so ironic when we consider how the nuns are bringing the church into the marketplace and highlighting Jesus’ teachings so clearly.
I agree Lynda and I think you will like the video above. Maybe this is the only way to change hearts.
