31-year-old Roxana Rodriguez, circled in the photo above, is a nun with
The Order Of The Little Disciples Of Jesus. She had initially lied that
she didn't know she was pregnant and that she thought her labour pains
were ordinary "stomach cramps" when an ambulance rushed her to the
hospital last week.
But Sister Roxana has finally confessed and opened about about the man who impregnated her...
But Sister Roxana has finally confessed and opened about about the man who impregnated her...
"I feel more of a mother than a nun, I think that's obvious. I decided to call him Francis in honour of our wonderful south American Pope. I do not feel guilty. I will be keeping him and bringing him up. He is a gift from God. I am little worried about all the publicity, not only in Italy but in El Salvador and all over the world. Everyone is talking about this and I don't think I will be able to return to my home country."
The lady who took her vows and became a nun last September has written
an apology letter to the Church and her Mother Superior for the shame
she has brought to the church.
She said the man who got her pregnant is a from her town El Salvador but has refused to mention his name.
Initial Report by ROME (AFP) –
"A Salvadorean nun who said she had no idea she was
pregnant gave birth in Italy this week after she felt stomach cramps in
her convent and was rushed to hospital, Italian media reported on
Friday.
The 31-year-old mother and her baby boy, who weighs 3.5
kilogrammes (nine pounds), are doing well and other new mothers in Rieti
hospital have begun collecting clothes and donations for her, the
reports said.
“I did not know I was pregnant. I only felt a
stomach pain,” the nun was quoted as saying at the hospital, the Italian
news agency ANSA reported.
La Repubblica said she gave birth on Wednesday.
ANSA
said the nun had named her baby Francesco (Francis) — also the pope’s
chosen title and one of the most popular names in Italy, where St
Francis of Assisi is the much-loved national patron saint.
The hospital could not be reached for comment.
The
nun belongs to the “Little Disciples of Jesus” convent in Campomoro
near Rieti, which manages an old people’s home and reports said she
would keep the baby.
Her fellow nuns were quoted saying they were “very surprised”."
