Cloisters

Well-known member
This cloistered congregation is very indigenous to Italy. They have not expanded past the original two monasteries, and may actually be down to one now. Their life is based on the revelations to their mystically-inclined foundress regarding St. John the Baptist – make straight the path of the Lord. The first link under the nun’s picture has an Italian-language pdf. The modern habit is shown near the end.
