Nuns of orphans?

Sometimes I get accused of running a catholic nunnery here. I would like to defend myself a bit if I may…
Many of my girls have suffered sexual abuse here. One of my girls has suffered many rapes from many men resulting in a pregnancy and an HIV positive test; she is 11. Dealing with such things, yes I tend to be a bit overprotective at times. I don’t think the girls mind. In fact, I told the older girls one time what the men who wanted them for wives would have to go through to put a ring on their finger. We laughed when mama explained the gamut they would have to come through, first thing being an AIDS test. When I finished I mentioned that maybe they would never get married and they all said in unsent, “That’s ok mama!”
I am not a man hater. I have some wonderful sons from birth and some wonderful sons here in Moz. I work side by side with wonderful men here and I don’t think they would call me a man hater. I am teaching the children I have here to look at the opposite sex with caution and respect, to see them as brothers and sisters. They are learning a different kind of love here, God’s love. His love is pure and simple and full of peaceable joy, not joy with guilt. The words, “I love you” take on a whole other meaning, one that reaches deep into your soul. I pray for them that when they do marry that it is God’s love that stirs their hearts, not just petty lust. It is God’s love that will keep them through all the temptations and trials here.
