Catholic Information
Wanted a job—any kind of work— no limit to hours—
no pay accepted.
Who in the world would seek a
job such as described above?
Hundreds do every y6ar! Hun
dreds of splendid, intelligent, edu
cated young women—some from
our very finest families are apply
ing for just such jobs in the great
Catholic Sisterhood.
“The poor ye have always with
you,” said our Lord; and in God’s
scheme of things, He has called to
the service of His beloved poor the
very flower of womanhood.
In this country alone there are
more than 155,000 humble, holy
women, joined by the common
vows of poverty, chastity, obedi
ence. Some of them teach in con
vent and parochial schools. Others
care for impoverished old folks and
orphans. Some nurse in hospitals,
in homes for cancerous paupers, in
leper colonies, and midst shot and
shell on the battlefields. Still
others go about begging at res
taurants, hotels, and other places
for leftover foods with which to
feed the hungry, making their own
meals from the remnants left by
their charges.
There is no work too difficult, too
menial, too revolting for these An
gels on earth to undertake gladly
for God through His poor, regard
less of race, color or creed. And
they earn no money. They possess
no earthly thing—not even the
clothes they wear. Yet the Cath
olic Sister is ever-smiling, ever
happy, because she is the “Bride
of Christ” and in all things His
will is her will.
More than 155,000 nuns in this
country alone! What a tremendous
national asset! How much woi^d
it cost in money and results to re
place them with paid workers, who
could not, and would not, labor
with the same devotion and dis
interestedness?
Beware of the story of the “es
caped” nun. There can be no such
thing. Any Sister may freely leave
any convent at any time. Beware
of him who spreads such poisonous
lies, for he is viciously striking at
our country’s benefactors and at
those who are very, very close to
the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
If it's anything Catholic, ask a
Catholic!
