Postulant’s blog

Audra Turnbull is 23 and plans to enter religious life in a community in Monroe, MI. She finds the Catholic faith awkward — which really means awesome — in her vocabulary.

“I’m writing this blog to look into the awkwardness, meaning awesomeness, that is the Roman Catholic Church,” Audra writes on her website The Awkward Catholic [no longer active]. She is one of the persons quoted in the recent ABC News article, “Nuns Go High Tech to Recruit.” [no longer posted, link to lengthy quote of article]
