Can twenty-six Catholic sisters in a Jewish Nursing Home find happiness? I personally never thought this would be something I would ever ask, much less find an answer to. Hint: the residents are learning from each other. The three minute video offers fascinating insights.

Faced with financial pressures the Sisters of Charity of New York took what many would describe as a drastic step… closing their own nursing facility and moving into a local Jewish-sponsored home. Jewish Home LifeCare.

Thanks to New Evangelization Television (NET) and the reporting of  Currents reporter Konrad Aderer who visits with the retired Sisters of Charity in their new home in the Bronx.
