You knew a new ‘spirit’ had entered the Church when the Religious started singing Protestant songs like this which it’s no coincidence were taken up with gusto by the hippies in the 1960’s/70’s
"Holy Holy Holy Lord God Almighty!" was a staple at the old fashioned Mass when I was just learning how to speak at 2 3 years old and on in through the 60s and that one was written by a Protestant. Once piece of music is part of Catholic Christian Mass worship service it's baptized in a sense and has been baptized into the Catholic Christian Church and is no longer Protestant
Yes!! YOU'RE RIGHT! This video from the Ed Sullivan show was taped in January, 1967. By this time, many of the US religious order of sisters had already modified their traditional habits. The Sisters of St. Benedict would also do the same later that year. The Catholic Church was also moving toward secularism as evidenced by their performance in singing a non-Catholic folk song, which also began the use of guitars and folk music at Sunday Mass.

No doubt the majority of the nuns in this video left the convent in the ensuing years. Especially the young nuns shown here. I have a friend/nun who stayed after the other nuns "left in droves starting in the '70s," as she sadly mentioned one day.
This was "a long time ago" but I just found out about this performance this weekend while visiting their monastery at Erie Pennsylvania. I met some of them who sang on the show as seen in this clip, and they are lovely souls that devoted their lives to Christ. Can't wait to visit them again and be blessed by them once more!
I hope not. They SUCK. They're embarrassing enough...PLEASE let's not get record companies involved for these gals' sakes and ours. When something makes me embarrassed to be a Catholic (however flightingly briefly), I say ignore and move along.

I'm going to have to check but I think Kumbaya is a simple prayer kind of like Jesus have mercy on me a sinner in the Bible. I think Kumbaya translated is come my way Lord come my way simple beautiful effective prayer
Beautiful performance saw it this evening on the Ed Sullivan show.

I was a student at St. Benedict's in Erie when our sisters made history on the Ed Sullivan show. Oh, Lord, Kumbaya!
Awesome singing well done Sisters.
This was the beginning of the end for most US Congregations of Nuns.

I believe that the director here was Sister Jean Lavin, aka Sister Agnes Jean, who was my advisor and teacher at Mercyhust. She was a great woman.
Uh...seriously??? Any documentation on her greatness? Because I, for one, have some questions.

@@pianoman551000actually, you would be surprised at just how many of them in this feature actually stayed...and are still alive at the Erie priory.
They appeared on the same episode as the Rolling Stones.

I have this on the Rolling Stones on Sullivan!
Love this! Did they ever cut a record?

we knew they were from Erie by their high forehead bands
What year was this
The early years of the infiltration. They really thought they were doing something 😔😔😔😔
WTF
LMAO this hippie shit is hilarious
Should add though that its good to see these nuns in their habits though
Well I’m glad you think that.
It’s not hippie shit
