A Nun's Life Minsitry visits Monastery
A Nun’s Life Ministry visits the Monastery of St Gertrude on a Motherhouse Road Trip, Thursday, September 3, 2015, in Cottonwood, Idaho. The road trip combines social media and in-person events in innovative ways to engage with people about God, faith, and religious life.
A highlight of the road trip is a podcast that is live-streamed (audio and video) over the Internet. Two Sisters of the Monastery of St Gertrude, Sr. Bernadette Stang and Sr. Carlotta Maria Fontes, join the hosts—Sister Julie Vieira and Sister Maxine Kollasch—to talk about topics such as discernment, prayer, spirituality, and more. There is also a live chat room where on-line listeners interact with each other and the sisters during the podcast.
People from across the U.S. and many other countries watch the podcast and join the chat room using their computers and mobile devices. The podcast airs at 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time/2:00 p.m. Pacific Time at aNunsLife.org/LIVE.
The A Nun’s Life team uses social media to inform people about the Motherhouse Road Trip and acquaint them with the host congregation. By posting on Instagram, Vine, Pinterest, Facebook, Twitter and other social media, the team shares stories, photos, and conversation. After the podcast, the team continues to share the experience online and encourages people to stay in touch with the host congregation.
The purpose of the Motherhouse Road Trip series, which is made possible by a grant, is to help connect Catholic sisters and nuns with an online community that is supportive of vocations and deeply interested in the lives and works of women religious.
