Piccoli Fiori JMJ

Mr. Zak has me looking for all sorts of contemplative communties to be prayer warriors for the Here I Am Lord conferences... I think I may have a list of just about every Discalced Carmel in the US, all of the Trappists/Cisternians, Cathursians, Sister Adorers of the Precious Blood, along with a good number of Benedictines, Poor Clares, Dominicans, and a number of other smaller orders. I think I will list the communities and the name of the abbey/monastery/whatever (if I have it) and location so you all can tell me what communities are faithful and orthodox (or not...) and if I am missing any that should be there! (A major thanks to Gemma and her site; it helped big time with this!)

Wouldn't it be kinda cool if phatmass had a 'database' of faithful orthodox orders ('specially ones with habits :) ) with all the contacts, links and such? Just kinda was thinking about this now...

Visitation nuns in Washington, DC? I know there used to be one in New York City or thereabouts (NOT the Second Federation Brooklyn monastery--I'm talking a First Federation monastery).

When did this happen? To which federation do they belong?

Blessings,
Gemma

The pink sisters also have convents in Lincoln, Nebraska and in Texas. The Passionists have 5 US convents.
[/quote]

Pink Sisters--yes Lincoln, NE, and Corpus Christi, TX

Passionists-- Erlanger, KY; Whitesville, KY; Pittsburgh, PA.

There's also a CP monastery in Clark Summit, PA, but we don't promote them because they modernized too much. Last I saw, they wore 'civvies'.

Where's the fifth one?

Blessings,
Gemma

I'm dancing because you have OLAM on your list. :yahoo: Gemma's site doesn't have them listed, I guess they're not large enough yet. :annoyed:

I think the Carmelites in New Franken and Denmark are one in the same convent. They just built a new convent (for four or five sisters; this convent cost 12 million dollars I think) and now are only in denmark. Now dont' quote me, but I think this accurate.

I don't have them listed as per their request--they already have too many applicants. :D:
