The retreat was very good. I found that God is not calling me there, and that I feel called elsewhere, and she said GOOOOOD!! It surprized me, but she was very happy that I am still listening to God and that I am willing to follow.

Hey -- a "NO" is a wonderful thing to hear; at least you know that God isn't calling you there and you won't have a lingering doubt of "what if".

It is wonderful too that the other lady from your parish did hear "YES".

May God keep you close to His heart so that you can be led by Him to where He wants you to be.

Off topic question:

Did anyone drive on i-94 on their way to see the sisters? I would like to know how bad the road construction is there and if there are major lane closures. Please feel free to PM.

Thanks!

Yeah she is, I didnt even know what she looked like until Vespers when she walked by me in the way back on the bench by the door her name tag faced me and thats when I saw her - she is really cool.

As I previously mentioned in the thread (Additions and Changes in Religious Life) ....this has been a LONG awaited...message! I, for personal reasons did not disclose that I was attending this retreat right away. But I did....and um...hehe it literally changed my life. If you would like to read my (writing) on it and how the retreat was for me personally, please send me a private message and I would be glad to send it to you.

Please pray for me....as I'm in a time of transition and making some changes....and some emotional situations.

God Bless,

Allie
