The circle above shows the face of the 33-year-old nun and new mother Sister Roxana Rodriguez who gave birth to a baby boy last week without knowing she was even pregnant.
Her picture was published in the Italian daily newspaper Corriere Della Sera, who have carried out an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the birth of her baby Francis. Findings reveal that the father of her baby is an old flame of hers from when she was younger and the man is not even aware he now has a son.
Sister Roxana claims she feels no guilt for her act but she knows she has incurred the anger of her superiors, and fellow nuns at her convent. So, she has written an apology letter to her convent's Mother Superior general Elvira Petaraca. Sister Roxana became a nun last September when she solemnly promised to follow her vows of 'chastity, poverty and obedience', the three main pillars of the Little Disciples of Jesus Order.
One nun who answered the telephone at the convent, when she was asked if the nuns would visit Sister Roxana at the hospital, said:
'No we must certainly not be going to visit her. What she has done is not right at all. She has betrayed her vows. She will not be coming back here.'
Na wa oo 2 wrongs don't make a right-why not visit her even if she is not coming back cos it happened bfr she became a nun
ReplyDeleteI marvel over some things we do as humans (or maybe the animal in us). Why look for that which we have given up? You take a vow of chastity....and you cannot control yourself. Married pastor cannot leave other peoples wives. Married woman cannot leave gentlemen/annointed men of God. Now boyfriend and Nun cannot leave themselves.Haba!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMake I ask ooooo. For nine months, de pikin no move for her belle (assuming she dey see her period for 9 months)? De pikin just stand straight like police for her belle abi na comatose pikin she carry? Wonderful
Lwkm
DeleteU sound like a bitter and jugemental person. And obviously immature .Read the story properly and slowly please before displaying ur ignorance@anon 10.57
DeleteNa real wonderful! How can she be preggie and not know? How?????
ReplyDeleteNa yoruba magic
ReplyDeleteShe got down with her old flame b4 she took the vow according to the article.
ReplyDeleteWhy take a vow when u know u can't keep it.
ReplyDeleteShe took the vow after the deed had been done na but she didn't no goal don enter
DeleteAll vows are the same,married couples are not exempted. They break their vows at any given opportunity so what's the difference. Is It cos she's a nun? Vow na vow anytime and anywhere.
ReplyDeleteShe was never meant to be a nun.
ReplyDeleteShe's doesn't regret her act but sorry that she has incurred the wrath of her fellow nuns. That shows she doesn't even know what she's doing at all. She should fear only God to whom and only whom she made that vow to.
ReplyDeleteIt is possible to be preganant and not be aware pls for the ignorant ppl kindly ask a doctor
ReplyDeleteI don't see anything wrong with what she did.which would ve been better-keeping or killing the baby? And she gave up her life to serve God and I think this is a time when the convent should stand behing her just like Christ did Mary Magdalene
ReplyDeleteThis is a test for all of us.
