I am one week into living in the formation house and I absolutley love it! I could not be more happy right now. This weekend, our Rector Major is coming to visit us. I am very excited. We will be opening a youth center in a couple of weeks in Orange, NJ. If anyone lives in the area and would like to donate some time PM me, we could use the help. I love the religious life. It truly is a great life, and a great expierence. God Bless all of you!

How many men entered and how many women entered?

How wonderful to hear from you! Sounds like you have found your niche! Best of luck

Woohoo! I'm glad to hear you're enjoying life so much! I'l be praying for you.

Pax Christi!

Thankfully, the only websites we are not allowed at are myspace. SO I can still post here when I have time.


Well, 6 men entered and Im not sure about the number of women, but I will definetly find out, I will ask Philosobrat, and Handmaid524, they both entered the Salesian Sisters, (FMA's)


I Am having such a great time. It gets better and better every day!


Thanks to everyone for the prayers. One can never have too many of them!

Good to hear from you, Irish! It's a blessing that you are allowed to post. We need to keep the guy/girl thing here in balance .

I will do my best!

I'm happy for you and you'll remain in my prayers!

Great to hear froom you and great to see you are loving your new life

Just a quick stop-in before we head on retreat, but in our formation house there are 12 of us - 5 postulants and 7 aspirants.

Next year we already have 10 new aspirants to enter... which means we are praying for a new house as we can only fit the 12 of us who are here.

Wow................. Awesome. Your head of the game.
