Thank you for providing this, Cloisters! Very nice!

When I saw the photo of the three extern Sisters during the Papal visit to the UK, I immediately recognized them! A closer picture of them was in a English Catholic magazine, ‘Faith Today’, which my priest-friend from northern England sent me in September-October 2010.

I knew who they were by the cool little umbrellas which they put atop their heads! 😃 :cool:
 
I just found out that the postulant habit is a sleeveless regular habit. When she becomes novice, she receives her “Sunday” habit, and the sleeves are added to the other for it to become the work habit.

Blessings,
Cloisters
