---who are these folks?

Looks like 4 non-habited ?Benedictines? making either first or final vows...
the lords sheep
They're habited. They're all wearing a veil. It's just not an ankle length habit

Not to be a spoilsport, and I know it's been brought up before...but people have permission from the copyright owners to post these, right? I know that all the photos on the Summit Dominicans' blog may only be used with their permission, and certainly the photo by Toni Greaves has her copyright on it.

All it takes is an email. I'm not accusing anyone of stealing these: just reminding.

No need to shout!!!

Lets no give anyone an unfair rap;
Daughters of Mary of the Immaculate Conception?
Daughters of Mary Mother of Healing Love?
Daughters of Mary-Marianist?
Daughters of Mary-Mother of the Saviour?
Daughters of Mary-Mother of Mercy?
Daughters of Mary-Mother of Israels Hope?
Daughters of Mary, Help of Christians.

Thank you



jkaands
The Daughters of Mary Mother of Our Savior are associated with the Society of Pius V (not X) and were founded by the founder of that society, which is schismatic.

The Daughters of Mary of the Precious Blood in Germany, another new group are related to the SSPX.

So both of these, in habits, are schismatic.

I couldn't open the Wiki thumbnail.

If the hair is long enough, yes. Some Postulants grow their hair out to be able to donate it at entrance.

How much do they usually cut, DtA? To the shoulders, chin, etc? Just curious. smile.gif

It depends on the order. At entrance, they normally cut the ponytail off, as seen in that picture. After that, the sister usually cuts her hair herself. So it could be at various lengths, I know that some people with really thick hair just cut mostly everything off, but leave the front part that shows under the veil. No one can see it so it doesn't really matter.

I remember a friend who was with the Daughters of Mary of the Immaculate Conception ( http://www.crossfire.org/daughtersofmary/frameset.htm ), she made a little comic of having the hair cut and it she had a sister shaving a "M" at the nape for Mother Mary, I can't remember if I ever asked if they really did that or not.
