Cloistered Minnesota Nuns Share Thoughts on Handling Social Isolation By John Reinan / Star Tribune
“SAUK RAPIDS, MINN. – The Poor Clare Sisters know all about sheltering in place. They’ve been doing it most of their lives. Sixteen Catholic nuns reside at Saint Clare’s Monastery in this central Minnesota city, living lives of service to God through prayer. To the usual vows of poverty, obedience and chastity, they’ve added one more: enclosure. From the hilltop sanctuary, they send out prayers in answer to the thousands of requests that come in by phone, by letter or confided through a screen in the doorway of their monastery. But they never leave their cloister, except for infrequent medical checkups.
As the COVID-19 pandemic spreads across Minnesota and much of the globe, several sisters graciously consented to meet and offer their thoughts on how the rest of us can cope with our social isolation during the novel coronavirus pandemic. “We are very happy and content, and feel very blessed to be in this situation. The Lord is very close to us,” said Mother Mary Immaculata, the abbess of the monastery, who’s lived here for 39 years. As for the rest of us, she said, “You have quite a challenge out there. You have the opportunity to be in the world and live your lives as good people. “It’s not hopeless”. Here are some of the nuns’ thoughts on keeping spiritually and emotionally healthy during a time of solitude. Stick to a program. “It is very helpful to have a schedule to live by,” said Mother Immaculata. The Poor Clare Sisters have regular times set aside daily for communal prayers, individual prayers, chapel, meals and relaxation. Be helpful. “Do something for someone else,” said Sister Mary Matthew, who’s lived in the monastery for 36 years. “Write a letter. Check on someone. Reach out to the elderly. Anyone can do that.” Enjoy yourself. “Play some table games. Make some popcorn,” said Mother Mary Barbara, the vicaress and a 27-year resident. The nuns gather every day for an hour to talk and relax. They might knit, crochet or make rosaries. Occasionally, they also enjoy pinochle, canasta, jigsaw puzzles and board games. Rack-O is a favorite. Make a joyful noise. ”The Sound of Music” and “The Singing Nun,” it appears, are true to life. “We do a lot of singing in our services,” said Sister Mary Matthew. “I encourage people to sing and listen to music. Those are the things that lift our hearts to God.”
Live in the moment. “Stop and smell the roses. Watch the grass grow. Focus on the goodness of God,” said Mother Immaculata. The nuns have no radio, TV or internet. They do read St. Cloud or Twin Cities newspapers dropped off for them by local residents, so they have knowledge of the COVID-19 pandemic. It’s all part of God’s plan, they say, and they’ve seen good come from it.
“We had a letter from a grandma,” said Mother Mary Barbara. “She was so happy that she could teach her granddaughters to crochet. In another letter, a little 4-year old is calling this ‘party days’ because mom and dad are home and they can do all kinds of fun things.”
And the nuns are praying for all of us. They’ve added multiple daily communal prayers for the end of the virus, and for those affected physically, emotionally and financially, said Sister Mary Christiana, a 17-year resident. “Our country is generous,” said Sister Mary Matthew. “Where there is a crisis, goodness comes out. It’s the face of God, the face of love.” Mother Mary Barbara said she’s grateful that people are being so cooperative in abiding by the rules created for safety. It would have been easy, she said, for there to be “a lot of rebellion and people objecting and not cooperating.” “So much beauty is coming from this,” said Sister Mary Christiana. “People might be blaming God,” said Sister Mary Elizabeth cloistered for 23 years. “God is all love and good. He can’t produce anything bad.”
And that leads to the sisters’ final tip: Remember that love has no barriers. “There’s still that love and presence.” Mother Immaculata said, “even at a distance.”” PONDERINGS FROM FATHER BILL I have been subscribing electronically to the “ Star Tribune “ out of Minneapolis, Minnesota since early January. The “Land of 10,000 Lakes“ has always been one of my desired states. My favorite hockey team (Wild) and television show (Mary Tyler Moore from 1970-1977) derive from that area , including Saint Paul and Bloomington (Mall of America). These consecrated nuns in the aforementioned article remind us of the power of spirituality, coming from the hidden walls of a convent. Thinking, disconnected from a society of panic and fear because of a destructive worldwide virus, is just what the doctor (Jesus ordered to keep us sane, hopeful, and faithful. I encourage all to adhere to these wise counsels from wise woman. Spiritually we will grow from these times. Father Bill

Today FIFTH SUNDAY OF EASTER
First Reading: Acts 6:1-7 During the early growth of the Church, the apostles realized that they needed more disciples in order to carry out effectively the ministry of the Church. The community selected seven men, one of whom was Stephen. Second Reading: 1 Peter 2:4-9 Citing many uses of the word “stone” in the sayings of Jesus and in the Old Testament, Peter urges the Christians to be “living stones...an edifice of spirit.” Gospel: John 14:1-12 In this beautiful passage from the words of Jesus at the Last Supper, Jesus promises that he is preparing a place for the apostles. He tells them, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through me.” When Philip asks Jesus to show them the Father, Jesus answers, “Whoever has seen me has seen the Father.”

Pope Francis’s Prayer to Mary During Coronavirus Pandemic
O Mary, you always shine on our path as a sign of salvation and of hope. We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick, who at the cross took part in Jesus’ pain, keeping your faith firm.
You, Salvation of Your People, know what we need, and we are sure you will provide so that, as in Cana of Galilee, we may return to you and to feasting after this time of trial.
Help us, Mother of Divine Love, to conform to the will of the Father and to do as we are told by Jesus, who has taken upon himself our sufferings and carried our sorrows to lead us, through the cross, to the joy of the resurrection. Amen.
Under your protection, we seek refuge, Holy Mother of God. Do not disdain the entreaties of we who are in trial, but deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.
Happy Mother’s Day Blessings to all Mother’s, Grandmother’s, Godmother’s
