Austrian Convent Reopens Doors to Runaway Nuns on Temporary Basis
Three elderly nuns who gained international attention after staging a daring escape from their care home and reclaiming their Austrian convent are now being allowed to stay, albeit temporarily. The remarkable story of Rita, 82; Regina, 86; and Bernadette, 88, saw the sisters defy church hierarchy to take back control of their beloved institution.
According to recent developments, the three nuns will be permitted to reside at the convent "until further notice". Church officials have effectively extended an olive branch to the defiant trio, paving the way for a possible resolution.
