New Convent

[Pious]

Hi,

An old hospice is being re-opened as a hospice and convent for a closed order of nuns called the Brigitines (SP) does any one have any info on them.

Please note they are not the Brigidines.

This is a religious order founded by St. Bridget of Sweden. They are called The Brigittine Order. This site gives a bit of their history.
