Nuns On The Bus - Colorado Springs, CO - November 12, 2012

From their website, Nunsonthebus.com:

Every hour of each day, Catholic Sisters stand in solidarity with all who live in poverty, and we confront injustice and systems that cause suffering.

We cannot stand by silently when the U.S. Congress considers further enriching the wealthiest Americans at the expense of struggling, impoverished families.

As part of our campaign for budget fairness we are taking a bus trip. Our bus will travel to places in many states where Sisters actively serve people in need. For they are our best witnesses to the suffering our federal government must not ignore.

We ask all who visit this website to join us in prayer and to support our work to defeat government actions that would add to the suffering of already struggling families.

This bus trip has been organized and is sponsored by NETWORK, A National Catholic Social Justice Lobby, and the NETWORK Education Program.

How dare they start without you being in position.

It's all good. It resulted in a nice crowd shot that caught the news vans.

Yes, but the fact they're nuns gave it a little extra publicity. And they were bucking the conservative leaders of the church

Lovely ladies!

AoD: Once again, thanks so much for posting this!

It doesn't have to do with them being nuns though. It has to do with them being passionate, compassionate, humane and good people. Yay people of that assortment, I'd say! :)
