National Help Out A Nun Day


Being the Worldwide Nun
I have decided to declare Monday, Sept. 19 as National Help Out A Nun Day. Please go to your local convent and offer to weed the garden, or if you see us out and about in public life, carry the groceries to the car (what else do you ever see us doing unlike the movies where we're always involved in a bevy of activity), if you're Whoopi Goldberg, give us singing lessons, if you're Sidney Poitier, help us build a church, perhaps design us snappier habits if you're Mr. Blackwell. Or since we're a non-profit bunch, make a donation to our favorite charity. (A Nun, 333 Convent Way, Any State USA) And failing all that, if you see this group out on the high seas, perhaps point them in the right direction!

Brother Gregory here... I particularly like the photo that goes with this since it's also "Talk Like a Pirate" Day.

...which brings up a thought that came to me in meditation... has history shown us any pirate nuns? After all, little pirate children must have a proper up-bringing. Arrrr, Avast ya little scurvy (rug) rats...me ruler be whacking ya on the knuckles if ye don't mind me now. Open ye readers to proper pirate lingo on page 23. Arrrrr blessed Mary.

... or something like that. Have to go check on the beer...bye for now.
