Saint Therese Posted April 20, 2010 Author Posted April 20, 2010 J.M.J.TH Five days left: THank you all so much for your prayers! Only a few more days and I'll be gone. I feel so blessed to be called to such an awesome community. Thanks be to God! People seem to focus on all the things I'll be "giving up". I don't think I'm giving up anything. I think I"m gaining so much-I feel like I"ve won a lottery or something-its definitely an undeserved gift from the Lord. God bless-Kayla

OnlySunshine Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 I keep thinking about them ever since hearing about them for the first time and seeing the video of investiture. I am thinking about visiting them when I am able to get time off work. I love that they are faithful to the Church AND have the Latin Mass.

Its hard to imagine that I'll be wearing one soon! Thanks be to God. Edited April 22, 2010 by Saint Therese
zunshynn Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 Do you know what the paper is? Like what she's supposed to read during the ceremony or something?
Saint Therese Posted April 22, 2010 Author Posted April 22, 2010 (edited) I'm not sure, but that's probably what it is. This evening I went and spoke to our parish youth group. I was terrified but it seemed to go well. I feel that in some sense the Church is becoming my family in a way it hasn't been before. Its really awesome. Only two more days left. Keep me in your prayers. Edited April 22, 2010 by Saint Therese
IgnatiusofLoyola Posted April 22, 2010 Posted April 22, 2010 If this isn't too personal a question---You said in an earlier post that your entrance date is April 29. However, you are leaving this Friday. What will you be doing that week? Will it take that long to travel to Alabama? Or, when you arrive at the monastery, do you spend a few days in retreat before you enter? I hope you are too excited to be stressed!
