How can sports like open-water swimming be a form of prayer?

In this Random Nun Clip, we talk with Sr. Anita Quigley, one of two guests from the Society of the Holy Child Jesus of Rosemont, Pennsylvania, community about the prayerful nature of open-water swimming.

For one thing, when it's just you and the water, there are no distractions.

GSR shares clips from our friends at  A Nun’s Life Ministry, which has a live prayer podcast on Monday (excluding holidays) at 4 p.m. Central Time and other live podcasts throughout the month: “Ask Sister,” “Motherhouse Road Trip” and “In Good Faith.” Dates and times for the full, live episodes are listed on their program schedule.
