Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written
language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through
audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio
while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using
a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Holy Spirit Adoration Sisters (Latin: Servarum Spiritus Sancti de Adoratione Perpetua, SSpSAP) are a Roman Catholic religious institute of contemplative cloistered nuns. 
The nuns live a contemplative life, focused on perpetual adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, offering intercessory prayers for the world 24 hours a day. Inside the cloister the nuns wear pink-colored habits in honor of the Holy Spirit. As a consequence of these habits these nuns are nicknamed the "Pink Sisters."
The congregation was founded in 1896 in the Netherlands by Saint Arnold Janssen, a German diocesan priest who had first founded in 1875 the Society of the Divine Word in the Dutch border village of Steyl, and in 1889 the Missionary Sisters Servants of the Holy Spirit. Later Janssen Formed the Holy Spirit of Perpetual Adoration congregation so that the missionaries that he had already formed could be supported by prayer. Janssen was canonized on October 5, 2003, by Pope John Paul II.
Mother Mary Michael was Saint Arnold Janssen's first Holy Spirit of Perpetual Adoration Superior of the Convent in Steyl. Mother Mary Michael grew the convents in many locations and continued to grow after her death on Feb. 25, 1934 in Steyl.  On Feb. 25, 2015 the Holy See gave approval for the beatification process for Mother Mary Michael. The Mother House was later moved from Steyl to Bad Driburg, Germany. 
The first convent abroad was established in Pennsylvania, United States in 1915 by Mother Mary Michael (Adolfine Tönnies) (1862 - 1934), upon the invitation of Archbishop Edmund Francis Pendergast. 
Currently, there are 22 convents located in Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Germany, India, Indonesia, the Netherlands, the Philippines, Poland, Slovakia, Togo, and the United States. These locations support the local people from their Prayer requests along with the World's needs 24 hours a day. Their financial support is only from donations from visitors and external private supporters.
