Speaking of the need for us to pray for the conversion of sinners, the Late Father Benedict Groeschel used to say he was praying that Madonna would enter a cloistered convent.
With this video remake of Madonna's "Like a Virgin" Sister Cristina Scuccia realizes an extraordinary fulfillment of that prayer. The nun meets and beats Madonna!
Real virginity is much more attractive than counterfeit, and much harder to come by.
O Stella Maris sucurre cadenti, surgere cui curat populo!
Sweet Mother of the Redeemer, that passage to heaven, gate of the morning, and star of the sea: Assist the fallen, lift up, you who cure, the people: you who bore to the wonderment of nature, your holy Creator. Virgin before and after, who received from Gabriel that joyful greeting, have mercy on us sinners.
