I don't know how this popped up but I feel so blessed for the opportunity to watch this. The most beautiful women in the world.
Those days will never be repeated (except in cloistered communities).
A world that once was! (And in my times.)
Yep....them were the days! But like dial telephones...them days are gone forever.
i grew up in that world. i miss it. Being a Catholic now, as i remember school days, is like living in a ghost town.
What a beautiful, wholesome sight.
May the good Lord bless them all!! Amen!!
How great it would be to be able to be amongst them...right there.
Old good times of memories for lifetime with bless of God
Amen
So beautiful!💝
Nostalgic days, never to be repeated. I remember them well. What were all those beautiful young girls thinking as they entered the novitiate? Giving up a life of being a wife and mother! That simply wouldn't happen these days. So save this video to remember the way it was.
Same reason we don't drive model-Ts or wear bloomers! An era gone by.
You're wrong. It's still happening, though certainly not in the numbers we had before. The communities that are attracting these young 'uns have kept their traditions, and those are very few.
@@jghfamily6104 I should have added that many smaller congregations of women thrive these days in traditional habits but are usually cloistered. These will continue but never on the scale of yesteryear.
We have a very large community of traditional young nuns on my block in nyc! And young friars too
@@jrzzrjnot the Dominican Sisters in Tennessee or the Sisters of Life etc. active new orders who wear habits
The nuns did run the best nursing schools back in the day this must be in the 1950 s
Home,blessed home, Time to learn,time to 🙏
VERY NICE VEDIO, BEUATIFUL SISTERS. BEUATIFUL PEOPLE.
What order of nuns are these?
These videos feature the Congregation of Sisters of St. Agnes based in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin.
Such a lovely habit.If they returned to it they would get many vocations.There are none so blind as those who will not see!
@@ryanscottlogan8459 ----You have a twisted view. If the girls are after a "habit", they are missing the boat.
@@ryanscottlogan8459 Who? The nuns or the nurses?
Scrubs look wrinkled and dirty.
Looks like Franciscan sisters of Notre Dame?
So many Novices and Postulants! How beautiful! That could not happen now. The birth rate is too low among Catholics
When they wore the Holy Habit of Religion
Vatican II ended that.
Thank God!
Certainly tried. But there's still the remnant left.
And...thousands of priests and nuns abandoned their vows and left the church.
