Inside The Convent With Stacy Dooley

[naomi24]

A very interesting documentary from non-religious Stacy.

For ten days Stacy joined a group of Anglican nuns who live in a rather smart purpose built convent that provides very nice guest accommodation too. They have specified periods of silence, they pray together four times a day, help out at a local food distribution centre, and make greetings cards for sale. They cook and clean for themselves but all their other needs, including health care and clothing are met, and they receive £75 per annum for personal spending.

An easy life? Running away from the realities of life? Lovely ladies all - but it struck me that they don't have a care in the world.

Your thoughts?
