Good thing the Bishop had witnesses. Excellent article title.

They're consecrated women, not sisters or nuns, so there's nothing inappropriate about the way they're dressed. There's a long history of such women in the Church.

@Sandy Barrett Sadly, “unconsecrated” women would be a better description for this gaggle. Their appearance bespeaks the repudiation of their holy vows.

The consecrated women had not entered the Apostolic Palace since 28 February 2013.

Sisters? I don't see sisters. Only women in lay clothes.
