84 Years of Faithfulness at 103 Years Old

Check out this video of Sr. Teresita - a cloistered nun in Spain who is 103 years old and has spent 84 years in the convent.  I love that she says she's hoping to meet the Pope when he comes to Spain for World Youth Day next month!  hehe! 
There's a lot of good stuff in this video - the encouragement of her parents to join the convent and discern a vocation, the fact that she joined simply because she was called, the misconceptions she had about nuns before she entered, how happy she is in the cloiseter, the prayer that she always offers which she talks about toward the end of the video - good stuff:


Tip of the hat to Fr. Z.
