The Stream

Social sisters

How is social networking helping nuns smash stereotypes and share their faith?

Tweeting nuns. Pop singing nuns. Activist nuns. The Catholic Church is not what it used to be, and social media is spreading the word. The Stream looks at the changing face of the Catholic sisterhood and asks how social networking is transforming how nuns focus on their faith.
