Catholic Nuns: the Process, Requirements, and Clothing of Religious Life
Did you know there was a difference between a nun and a sister? They are often used interchangeable today but they do have a distinction. I had no idea! In this episode we go over the process, the requirements, and the day-to-day life of a nun. It takes 9-12 years to become a fully-fledged nun... definitely not something to rush into!
