Swami Mommy Posted August 19, 2016 Author Share Posted August 19, 2016 (edited) I've set my DVR! I watched the program on the Poor Clares and it was very nice. The monastery is beautiful, but the film only showed seven or so nuns. I'm not sure if that was their entire community, but I got the sense that it was.

I watched it too last night - thanks for posting about it. It's the Belleville community and I believe they have had a few vocations since that video was made. Their website http://www.poorclares-belleville.info/ said it was done in 2003. Further, there's another one on Poor Clares at 630 pm est. This time Poor Clares of Perpetual Adoration in France - I wonder if it's the community that OLAM helped refound several years ago. 50 minutes ago, Swami Mommy said: I've set my DVR!

Do you know where is the community that OLAM helped refound ? There's two PCPA monasteries in France : Castelnaudary and Troye (the birthplace of the congregation). Both of them have been refounded by Polish, and Indian sisters, that I'm sure, but I don't know wich one have american sisters. 13 minutes ago, truthfinder said: I watched it too last night - thanks for posting about it.

nikita92 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 She played the violin in the Holy rosary videos....Sr. Marie Antoinette. The other one is Sr. Mary Catherine. Sorta off topic...Belleville doesnt really post announcements (I dont think)when they receive new novices! Someone can correct me if they know. I only say that, because I was told by a Franciscan friar that it was to the best of his knowledge.. a sister from OLAM had transfered to that community a few years ago ..However, nothing was ever made public if she truely had done so. I say THAT, because... communities usually announce in some way shape or form...when they have recieved a "newbie" into their fold!

Swami Mommy Posted August 22, 2016 Author Share Posted August 22, 2016 (edited) I just watched "Hidden: a Life All for God" and in my opinion it's one of the best vocation videos I've seen. The nuns are wonderfully insightful and heartfelt as they describe the fruits of monastic life and share their own vocation stories. I highly recommend this video. In addition to being a testament to the beauty of living a life dedicated to one's inner relationship with the Divine, at its core it's also an inspirational blueprint that can be applied to any life path for those who wish to daily recommit to creating a meaningful life of focused depth and intention.

That's what you can expect from the Trappists. Is any of this online? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
