Ave's Countdown And Musings

[AveMariaPurissima]

God willing, four months from today, I will join the Trinitarians of Mary!!!!!!

[mantellata]

Congrats! You must be so excited!

[Strictlyinkblot]

Congrats! Are they active or contemplative?

[OnlySunshine]

Praised be Jesus Christ!!!! Are these the same Trinitarians of Mary in California who are semi-contemplative? They are a beautiful order and so devoted to praying for priests.

[Mary's Margaret]

Wonderful news! Be assured of much prayer along your journey.

[Jennifer]

Lovely news.......................many prayers for you Ave.

[AveMariaPurissima]

Thank you, everyone, for your kind words and promises of prayers. I appreciate it so much!!!

They are contemplative, but not cloistered. People can come visit (hint), and they also do retreats for priests, and help out the poor people who come to them, and...probably some other stuff I'm forgetting.

Yes!!! (This is amazing! Someone else who has actually heard of the Trinitarians! I've gotten to the point where it surprises me more when people have heard of them than when they haven't!)
Again, thank you to everyone! (And thanks for all the props!)

Tried to post a vocation flyer for you, but it won't post... so you will have to click and hunt for it!

(Might as well drum you up some business!)

AnneLine: Thanks for the post, but those fliers are almost three years old. (Website updates are not one of my Sisters' strong points )
I love the picture, though! It has Pope Benedict [i]and[/i] Mother Lillie -- two of the most amesome people ever!!!!

[AnneLine]

I've been accused of living in the past before..... but I didn't notice the vocation flyer was old... but I figured all of us would love to see your foundress and Pope John Paul!


So.... find some newer stuff and scan it in for us!

Oh, these are the sisters with the very long veils.....LOVELY habit, and of course the habit is everything, right!
Congratulations and many prayers.

Wonderful news, praying for you!

[organwerke]

They are wonderful and I am so happy for you!!

[AveMariaPurissima]

Would anyone be interested in seeing my "list"?

[Mary's Margaret]

Absolutely! I love 'eavesdropping' on others' preparations to enter. I'm afraid I'm not much help, but some here are excellent at finding 'nungear' at very good prices. Thank-you for being willing to share your journey with us.

I always love to see the "lists"!

[OnlySunshine]

Oooooo! I vote "heck yes" on the list! I love reading what people need to bring. It's so unusual sometimes what added stuff you need to bring.

[maximillion]

It's not a choice, post the list.......!!!!!

[Kayte Postle]

So excited for you Ave, congrats!!! ^I agree, let's see that list of yours.

[Strictlyinkblot]

Me too, me too
