I would like to join.

What do you do?

Great! Please PM me your email address and I will send you an invitation from blog along with the New Members Information Sheet. Do you have the ability to read .pdf files on your computer?

This is from the blog:

Welcome! This blog is a group blog consisiting of people discerning vocations to the religious life. There are people here that are thinking of the priesthood and those that are thinking of becoming nuns or religious sisters. Please pray for us as we seek God's will in our lives. We welcome your comments and prayers on this blog. If you are discerning a vocation to be a priest, nun, religious sister, deacon or if you are currently in formation, then I invite you to join this blog.

So, basically, it is just a place to post your vocation story as it develops. We are a community and enjoy praying for each other.

Cool! I'll try to join then! (Even though sometimes I'm rather a slacker at blogging)

Great! I've emailed both of you. We can write back and forth now through email.

You might want to add in that it is open to those considering becoming religious brothers, as well.

Correction made. Thank you.

We are still always looking for more members and we now have a new template! Please visit the blog and, if you are discerning a vocation, let me know if you would like to join.

Although only 16 and nowhere near knowing which path He is leading me, I would like to join. I never turn down prayers and support.

I've sent you a PM

Maybe... do you have to update it regularly? 'Cause I'll probably forget, or else just be lazy.

You may post as often as you like. There is no requirement for this. If you are interested, let me know and I will send you the information.

Sure, I'll try it!

I've sent you a PM.

I've written quite a few things about my vocational journey on my private blog, including my first visit to a convent and a description of my stay in the Carmelite monastery. I'd be happy to let you have those for the blog, along with anything new that I may happen to write.

Everyone: Even if you do not wish to join the blog, please pray for all of the blog members. And, if you do have a website, please link to our blog.

May I join?

I'd also like to join, if that's okay.

I left a comment on the blog a few days, maybe a week, ago... I would like to join.

I would like to join...

Be assured my poor prayers with all of you. I added it to my favorites.

Have a Jesus-filled day!

This looks like a great blog....thinking about it.

Pax et bonum

Just a warning to those considering:

The creator of this blog (the OP of this thread) is in support of the SSPX. It is your decision to support it through writing. I just wanted to make every more aware of what they might be getting themselves into. I once was a contributing writer and have been battling whether or not to continue to write for the blog. After demanding that I pledge adherence to (or support of) the Oath Against Modernism, I started to question the level of orthodoxy and commitment to the current Magisterium the owner of the blog had. I did not want to cause scandal by contributing to a blog which supported only ultra-Traditional vocations and orders that considered themselves members of the SSPX.

This is a personal warning. I am not speaking for the moderating team at this time or for dust or his site.

The support of SSPX is my PERSONAL opinion - no one else on the blog needs to be in support of SSPX. I am NOT part of SSPX even though I support their efforts most of the time. Again, this is a PERSONAL opinion of mine and is not part of Holy Vocations Blog at all.

Secondly, members are expected to agree to the Oath against Modernism, which was written by Pope St. Pius X. The Oath is not against modernism and I never demanded anyone to support it - I asked quite politely.

I'm sorry that you wish to attack me personally but, as the Gospel states, the followers of our Lord and the Church will certainly be persecuted. You question my orthodoxy and adherence to the Magesterium, but I am not a heretic. Have you studied the Councils of the Church and read the Popes from pre-Vatican II? I adhere to all official Church teachings and teach no heresy. On the blog, I have it set up for others to discuss their vocational journeys - the blog is not meant to have anything to do with my personal support for the Society of St. Pius X.

PS: The Oath against Modernism is part of the Magesterium! It is not in anyway created by SSPX.

I am sorry that you feel this way; I have removed you as a contributor from the blog because all members must support the Oath.

Unfortunately the situation with SSPX isn't very clear right now due to private statements, vs. John Paul's statement of 20 years ago. Things are changing among the clergy and again in the church, so let's not judge one another - that's up to Christ.

CHARITY IN ALL THINGS.
