A friend of mine who is a Priest mentioned a new Women's Religious Order in Washington D.C. that focuses on different ways to further JPIIs New Evangelization. Has anyone heard about it?

Full Version: New Order in Washington D.C.?
I hope you're talking about: The Servants of the Lord and the Virgin of Matara!!
They are an AWESOME Order. My friend just joined in June! They have about six hundred sister world-wide and were just founded about 16 years ago in South America. Here's the URL: http://www.servidoras.org/
They don't have much info in English, yet, but they're working on it. God bless!

Thank you... I don't know if that is them or not, by the way he was talking it sounded like they were just founded... but I don't know, thank you for this information!

Well I believe they may be fairly new to America, but I'm not sure.
they've been in the US from at least 2001.....a girl from my college entered them that year

yes, yes, yes these sisters are awesome! I know the Mother Vicar who's in nyc and I've volunteered with some of the sisters in new york. I can't say enough good things about this order. I do think they're new to the us but they are getting many vocations. If I was called to be an active sister, I would want to join them too!!
They have cloistered Nuns, too. I don't think many people know about that. After postulancy (or is it novitiate?), you can choose whether you want to remain active or become a contemplative.
I believe they have one comtemplative sister for every active so that an active sister always has someonw praying for them. I have a friend whose sister and ex-girlfriend (who also was a friend of mine) joined the order. AWSOME sisters!

of course! I knew this already- I momentarily forgot. Thanks for reminding me. What I was trying to say is that I really like this order but I know that I'm not called to it. But for anyone who is discerning, IVE is wonderful
