| Roman Catholic nuns have since long been trans-local in their orientations, their prayers and their work. As an answer to Secularisation hundreds of women's congregations emerged in Europe in the 19th century. Due to political conflicts as well as to mass migration many women religious left Germany and migrated odier European countries and to die USA. This article explores the experiences of sisters who left their country of origin and settled in a new place. At the same time they maintained multiple ties and interactions with their home country. Comparing two religious communities, I will stress on the relationship between gender, migration and religion. Special attention will be given to the following questions: Who made the decision for migration? Which kinds of cross-border networks were important for women religious? How did nuns experience the host country? And in which ways did they communicate with their branches "at home"? | |
