Chantal, this is such a timely and thoughtful interview! I’ve been reading and hearing a lot about Sr. Wilhelmina from The Pillar, and I’m so grateful to God and to y’all who are sharing the nuns’ stories for bringing this community to my attention!

A lovely way of life! I spent two wonderful years with a contemplative order, but alas I wasn't call to this life.

This was lovely and inspiring. You asked great questions. The spirituality of these sisters (and similar orders) is very deep. I wonder what it's like to chant the psalms. I pray the office but I don't know the melodies for chanting the psalms. Could you imagine being a fly on the wall of their chapel during the divine office, or the Mass, listening what's taking place?

Thank you for the work you put into this!
