A Florida nun has helped the clean-up efforts following Hurricane Irma by taking a chainsaw to downed trees while dressed in her full habit.
Miami-Dade police posted video of Sister Margaret Ann at work on social media taken by an off-duty officer who came across her.
Police said the nun was cutting trees to clear the roadways around Archbishop Coleman Carroll High School near Miami.
Sister Margaret Ann is the school's principal, according to its website.
Police saID "acts of kindness" like Sister Margaret Ann's remind residents that they're all part of the same community.
The department added in its post: "Thank you Sister and all of our neighbours that are working together to get through this!"
A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
