Dear Patricia - I am a cloistered nun and I assure you that it is not only acceptable but necessary. In every religious Order, time is set aside for wholesome recreation, so necessary for balance and emotional and psychological health.

Dear Frances,
I just watched the live webinar . The writing of Feb 24, 1932 had me trembling and crying at the awesomeness of God and this incredible gift. As you stated, it is perfect for a Lenten meditation and I look forward to taking this into His silence. Please know how deeply grateful I am for your wisdom, knowledge and your time. May God grant you an ever deeper union with Him during these remaining days of Lent and beyond!
Fiat!
