An entire order of nuns has fled a convent on the Greek-Bulgarian border after running up huge debts.
The nuns' knitting business, serving 25 shops across Greece, has crashed.
From mother superior to the most junior novice, the 55 nuns sought sanctuary in the Xenia convent in the hills of central Greece.
The Greek Holy Synod is trying to sort out their debts of some 760,000 euros (£500,000) and persuade them to come out of hiding.
