Please wait for my reflections on my visit., I got no sleep this day (I came home at 4am, after travelling for six hours and I barely slept.) I'll try to reflect mor deeply on my experience.

One thing I would like to share right now: It's a torture to go back to the world.

By the way, thanks for the prayers and best wishes! I would like to respond to each one of you personally but I am still tired from the trip. God loves you!



AVE MARIA!

From the Philippines to the archdiocese of Boston....
the Franciscans of the Immaculate are already a presence in southern New England.
How long have they been in the greater New York metro area? well established there I believe.
Now comes the announcement (September 2011)
from Sr Marian Batho, the Boston diocesan representative on religious life,
that the women tertiaries of the FI have made their foundation official in this diocese.

Their formal title is kind of a mouthful --
the Franciscan Handmaids of the Immaculate is the SHORTEST version,
other titles throw in 'Missionary' and 'Tertiary'.

Currently they are to be found in the town of Bellingham, at St Brendan's Catholic parish/rectory,
on state route 109 very close to interstate 495.

Outside the Archdiocese of Boston, of course,
they can be found in Rhode Island, in far southeastern Massachusetts,
and I think in Connecticut?

Ave Maria!

 

Happy Solemnity of the Annunciation! If I may make a brief "announcement" in honor of Our Lady.. Once frequenting the phorum as "johnnydigit", I entered the Franciscans of the Immaculate in 2009 and made my first profession of vows on September 8, 2012, Feast of the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Praised be Jesus and Mary for taking me on an extraordinary journey and bringing me to such a beautiful order! Have a blessed Solemnity and happy Easter!

 

In the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary,

 

Friar John Paul Marie of Our Lady of Grace, F.I.
