Random Nun Clip

In this Random Nun Clip, Sr. Jane Aseltyne, a member of the Sisters, Servants of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, based in Monroe, Michigan, joins Sister Maxine for an Ask Sister question. A listener wonders if there's ever drama among the nuns in a convent. "The short answer to this question is yes," Sister Jane says, because sisters are human beings. But there are upsides to recognizing each other's imperfections and mistakes.

Francis' call for mercy toward all summarizes his vision of the church, writes Diego Mauro. (CNS/CPP/L'Osservatore Romano)

After illness, can Pope Francis consolidate his vision of church?
