We just learned about the nun Clare of Assisi.
Another famous nun was Rose of Lima, who was born in the country of Peru, and spent her whole life helping to take care of sick and poor people.
She was a member of what is called the Dominican Order, which was a group started by a Spanish priest named Dominic around 1200 AD.
