Pope doesn’t want nuns with “vinegar faces” and warns against gossip

Pope Francis does not want any nuns with “vinegar faces” for his Roman Catholic Church. He has met several sisters with this characteristic in his life – “and that is not lovable, it is not something that helps to attract people,” said Francis loudly Kathpress at a meeting with The Lady of the Order on Saturday at the Vatican. “Vinegar is bad and vinegar-faced sisters, let’s not talk about it!”

“Please no chatter between you, nothing.”

On the other hand, he would like the “friendly and loving lifestyle” of the missionary school sisters of St. Catherine of Siena, the Pope continued. The audience was for the missionary school sisters, whom Francis received on the occasion of their 100th anniversary. He appealed to them to always speak well and kindly and to beware of the “very great enemy” of chatter. “Babble kills, chatter poisons. Please, no chatter among you, nothing,” the Pope demanded. “Be messengers of kindness.”
