The Telegraph (British) website reports today (December 21, 2010) that three nuns have been forced to leave their convent, as a result of their decision to convert from Protestantism to Catholicism.
The nuns were told to leave the Priory of Our Lady of Walsingham by the Rt. Rev. Peter Wheatley, the Bishop of Edmonton and Visitor to the house.
Four older nuns, who also live in the house, were upset by the decision of the younger nuns, since they felt it divided the house, and left them running the community on their own.
Sisters Wendy Renate, Jane Louise, and Carolyne Joseph wanted to stay at the priory until they could be received as Catholics, but were told to leave.
