http://ncronline.org/news/sisters-stories/sartain-offers-lcwr-few-details-some-sisters-say*************
Several LCWR members, while not giving specifics of Sartains remarks or the questions asked of the archbishop, told NCR afterwards of their general feeling of the meeting. A few of the members expressed appreciation that Sartain spent time at their assembly; others said there was a general sense of frustration, fatigue, and disappointment with the direction of the afternoon.
This is just more of the same, said one. Another, asked to express a general feeling, would only make a so-so gesture with her hands.

"Sartain offers LCWR few details, some sisters say"
It's spelled correctly.

At least it's not a cartoon.

So says the Catholic Church.
Can't remember the Toon with the Pope complaining about the Nuns, but he said something about being the penis-haver.
It was funny.

Will be interesting to see what they have to say at the end of the conference.
I hope they make a strong statement.
