TeresaBenedicta Posted October 15, 2010 Posted October 15, 2010 [quote name='angelofmary' timestamp='1287178357' post='2179847'] The pictures of Sadora are up! [/quote] Yay!! She finally got her postulant outfit!! Aww... I'm so happy for her!!!
Sarah147 Posted October 15, 2010 Posted October 15, 2010 Nice postulant outfit! lol She doesn't want to look into the camera. I can't say I've ever heard the name "Sadora" before. It will be awesome when she comes on and posts when she has the trip home. I can't wait to hear about her life in the convent.
HopefulBride Posted October 15, 2010 Posted October 15, 2010 (edited) Yaaaay, she looks lovely. Edited October 15, 2010 by HopefulBride
IgnatiusofLoyola Posted October 15, 2010 Posted October 15, 2010 (edited) Here are the pics: [url="http://www.dominicansrs.co.uk/News/news1.htm"]http://www.dominican.../News/news1.htm[/url] [img]http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn264/DGeorge758/SadoraPostulantPic101510.jpg[/img] [img]http://i306.photobucket.com/albums/nn264/DGeorge758/SadoraPostulantPic2101510.jpg[/img] FYI: If I remember correctly, Sadora was named after her great-aunt. I assume it's a Korean name. (Sadora is half-Korean.) If I'm wrong about any of this, please correct me! I was surprised that Sadora wasn't grinning ear-to-ear, but maybe the Community wanted to post more serious-looking pictures. (Also, she probably had jet-lag, since she arrived in England after an all-night flight only hours before her official entrance to the community!) Edited October 15, 2010 by IgnatiusofLoyola
Sarah147 Posted October 15, 2010 Posted October 15, 2010 (edited) She has such an awesome personality; That community will be blessed to have her. Boy, I'd be falling over if I hadn't much sleep, lol. Edited October 15, 2010 by JoyfulLife

[/quote] I think these were taken a few days after her arrival-- if I recall correctly, she wasn't fitted for her postulant outfit when she first visited, so they had to make it for her when she arrived.

[/quote] Good reminder--I remember L-C telling me that, too. I expected to see L-C grinning from ear to ear that she finally made it to England! But, entering religious life is a serious thing, so maybe her face is reflecting that. Or, as I said earlier, maybe the Community wanted a serious picture for their Web site. I remember L-C saying once that she wasn't wild about the postulant outfit for this Community--she wished it had a veil--and a cape! LOL. Actually, I think it looks pretty good--better than many I've seen. And, L-C's novice habit will have a cape (and veil). Plus, I bet that, after she FINALLY! got to put it on, she didn't care what the postulant outfit looked like, but was just happy to be entering religious life. She's been working SO hard for this moment. Edited October 16, 2010 by IgnatiusofLoyola
organwerke Posted October 16, 2010 Posted October 16, 2010 Wow, she is lovely! In my opinion, her face is simply medidative, as every dominican should be!! Just to remain in topic...do you remember "our other dominican postualnt", don't you? I mean...Saint Therese. I really think she is in this photo (on the right) with two lovely wonderful puppies! http://ldominican.xanga.com/733918557/sunday-in-the-cloister-garth--our-four-postulants/
vee Posted October 17, 2010 Posted October 17, 2010 Today I received in the mail a surprise package from LC sent before she left for England. Apparently it takes ten days to send a couple of books to Canada who knew! Anyway much to my shock and screams of delight, I sounded like a little kid getting a PS3 or something for Christmas, I opened the bubble mailer and stared at the wonderful things she had so thoughtfully sent me out of the blue. Its rare for my hands to shake when I open something but as I picked up one thing after another the shaking persisted. A copy of My Sister St Therese, the Divine Favors Granted to St Joseph, Divine Mercy as a Way of Life, a little chaplet of St Therese, and a small greeting card with a pic of St Therese on the front and a wonderful message inside from LC. God has given me some incredible wonderful, amazing, and holy phriends through phatmass and I am ready to nominate LC for Canonization even though she is still alive. At the same time Im (jokingly) ready to kill her! hahahha! Inside that woman is a heart of gold.
Rebecca2009 Posted October 23, 2010 Posted October 23, 2010 (edited) Looking at the vocations page on the site for the convent Sadora has entered, wow....i love the pictures of nuns/priests lying before the altar. SO beautiful. Jesus must love to see such hearts before Him. Edited October 23, 2010 by Rebecca2009
