Blessed be God!

Congratulations and many prayers for you and New Additions #1 & #2! :saint:

I will be sure to keep your special intention in my prayers as well. :pray: Were you able to apply for the [url="http://www.fundforvocations.org"]Mater Ecclesiae[/url] grant last month? That's pretty much the only organization I know about (besides the Laboure foundation) dedicated specifically to helping future (God willing) religious enter their communities by alleviating their debt.

Congratulations to all!

It's been a long time since we had an update about these nuns--did the novice Sister Agnes make her first vows--her clothing ceremony was documented a few years ago by a local television station--just wondering...

Please remember to pray for these nuns, as they are doing much good, and have certain enemies who do not want to see them grow (remember the trials of St. Teresa of Avila each time she founded a new foundation, it was at great costs, often ground between the teeth of great oppression and diabolical attacks).

I am curious, too. Has Sr. Agnes made her first vows?

I appreciate everyone's curiosity, however since I'm not a spokesperson for the community I don't feel it would be appropriate for me to speak about community affairs.

Oooh! Congratulations! Does this mean you get a solid black veil, or the kind of see through one? By the way,I just checked their website, did they change their postulant habit? It looks different! But cool!

You're not being mean, simply pointing out the inconsistency. No one is asking about Sr. Agnes for any reason other than to keep her in their prayers, no matter what the answer.
