I am delighted to have e-met Sr. Mary Paul. Her website is The Still Heart. After a long journey, Bishop Sergio Carranza, of the Diocese of Los Angeles consecrated her on October 30th 2008 as a Professed Episcopal Solitary. With Life Vows of Simplicity, Obedience, and Chastity. In Anglicanism Professed Solitaries are few and far between. There was one I knew in the Dunedin Diocese (NZ) but he has now passed away. One suggestion is that there are only six such Nuns and one Brother in the entire Anglican Communion.
