"Truth is really important in our world today…"

That’s just part of what Mary Anne Marks told “Currents” when she visited the show a year ago and talked about her inspiring decision to join The Dominicans after graduating summa cum laude from Harvard.  (An event that garnered a lot of media attention with this jaw-dropping speech, delivered in Latin.)  A year on, she’s now taken the habit and taken a new name, signaling her devotion to Truth: Sister Maria Veritas — “Mary Truth.”  The Anchoress has the scoop and the first pictures of Sr. Maria in the novice’s habit.
