Two Catholic Nuns Becomes Pregnant After Travelling For Missionary Work In Africa

The Catholic Church is investigating how two Italian nuns became pregnant while on separate missionary trips in Africa.

The two women, who belonged to different orders in Sicily, Italy, were both found to be pregnant after they embarked on a mission to work in Africa as missionaries for some time.

One woman, a mother superior, discovered her pregnancy while working with “fallen women and their children” and left Italy for her home country of Madagascar.

The second woman complained of stomach pains upon her return to Italy and discovered via ultrasound that she, too, was pregnant.

The problem now is that Catholic Nuns usually take vows of chastity which see them remain celibate for the rest of their lives.

In this case, it would appear the vow has been broken and these women are perhaps not celibate since they already got pregnant in Africa, except of course, if the pregnancy had only come through the non-conventional means of getting pregnant.

The two nuns are now preparing for the birth of their babies and they are also expected to leave the order as they have broken several laws and most importantly betrayed their own vows.

The church announced that the investigation would prioritize the welfare of the children over the nuns’ violation of chastity vows.
