Nun | Faces of Faith

Sister Gioan Linh Nguyen, Catholic Nun
We photographed Sister Linh praying in the convent and chapel at Paulines Books and Media, where she lives with six sisters in downtown Honolulu. She follows the order of the Daughters of St Paul, following the Blessed James Alberione, Apostle of Communications. Photographed as part of our photo essay 'Faces of Faith' for Honolulu Magazine.


“Living in poverty and simplicity is easier,” says Sister Linh Nguyen. I don’t have to think: What should I wear? Does this match?”
