Monks Who Play Punk

NY Times article: I wasn’t really sure what to expect but it made me smile. Praise God that some of the orders that still wear habits and live in communities are seeing an upswing in postulants.

What a great article! Everyone should read this.

“No bling-bling, no sweet thing, Christ is King.”

And, the NYT doesn’t say anything negative about their efforts at the abortion clinic …other than posting the dismissive statement of the clinic supervisor:

Senior staff members at the clinic declined to comment on what the friars do near their building. “I don’t think that they require any more press,” said a clinic supervisor, who would not give her name. “I think that they’re impressed with themselves, and that should be enough for them.”
The clinic’s Web site states that the clinic believes it is “doing what’s right for today’s women.”

What a great article! Everyone should read this.

Yes, the article is about much more than the music gimmick. This is definitely an order which folks here at CAF will appreciate.

Thanks for sharing it, SeekerJen!
