    Congratulations. Bethany sisters are dedicated people and always concern about the poor and downtrodden. They live very simple and frugal life even though they hold big positions in the institutions. Some of them are unsung hero but never get any publicity. They are not allowed to accept any expensive gifts. Couple of my extended family members are Bethany Nuns and I know how simple they are. One has to have a real "Calling" to be Nun.
