La distruzione dei Monasteri femminili
It looks very troubling for the future of cloistered women in religious life.
It seems that the necessary autonomy of the monasteries and religious orders, required by their own rules, is being violated by this new Vatican instruction and its implementation.
Perhaps the religious communities that can't agree with it should denounce it and resign their canonical status of religious and change their status to association of the lay faithful, until a more favorable climate.
