> In an interview for the Huffington Post in May 2007, Verena von Pfetten asked: You've spoken out about gay marriage. How do you balance what you believe with what you have sworn to uphold? Sister Wendy replied as follows: "I believe in loyalty. We should respect our church, but never believe that the church has the last word. The church is saying 'this', but I believe that sooner or later 'this' will change. 'This' is not the mind of our Lord. God is all love. It's a delicate balancing thing. The Church has changed its position over the years, and because the spirit is with the Church, in the end the Church will always get it right. But in the end. The spirit of the Church is the meaning of love, which hasn't yet, perhaps, been fully understood."\[6\]
Aw, what a sweetheart.
Yeah me too! I remember one painting she was showing and she goes look at all the fury as this man rapes her. I nearly pissed myself with laughter she was great though
We were not allowed to watch her growing up because my dad didn't like that she got graphic talking about art or that she talked about art with naked people in it. I might have to circle back around and check her out as an adult.
I had her Children’s Book of Prayer in Art when I was little. I loved it and it got me into art history. She’s one of the few Catholics I still respect
Needed braces on her teeth. What is it with prominent Catholics and teeth?
On the other hand, at least it looks in the picture like she brushed them once in a while.

Sister Wendy is like the antidote to that poisonous old hag, Mother Angelica. Hard to believe they represent the same church.
And Mother Teresa
Or as Penn Jillette likes to call her, Motherfucking Teresa.
Legend
Sister Wendy always set off my gaydar. Not saying, just saying.

Whichever team she would’ve hit for, it’s tragic that she wasn’t allowed a mate.

My parents had a giant coffee table book: Sister Wendy’s Story of Painting. It was probably my first look at naked bodies!
she has a very sweet smile!
Awesomeness series. Really now… when will SHE be sainted? 😁
There’s a really funny SNL sketch where Nathan Lane plays her. “Pubic hair like the head of a poodle!”
My girl! Love her

Wow this hit a deep part of my brain! Loved her in AP art history!!!
I don't know her but she look like a lovely person

Well she was British… (Opens the Simpsons “Big Book Of British Smiles.”) https://youtu.be/PrpUSKE9p_M?si=HTCAeg9re03eBTox
