This short article speaks to a community of cloistered nuns living on the volcanic island of Santorini, Greece a popular tourist destination.
I quote:
Many orders of nuns are active in teaching, health care and ministry to vulnerable groups like migrants. But contemplative nuns carry on a tradition of complete devotion to prayer that traces its origins to the first desert hermits, who sought closeness to God by removing all earthly distractions.
