Catholicterp7 Posted November 21, 2012 Share Posted November 21, 2012 [quote name='emmaberry101' timestamp='1353390208' post='2513490'] Sorry this is off-topic, Catholicterp-I didn't want to send it in a PM because I may not be the only curious one!-but is your signature from Sister Angelique, PCC? It is beautiful! I seem to remember you saying somewhere here on VS that she is a dear friend of yours. You are so blessed! Did she write that in a letter to you? Forgive me if I am being nosy, your signature was just so beautiful and caught my attention. [/quote] It's quite alright. Yes, it's from her. In the last letter she sent me she added a prayer that she had written for me. Here's the whole thing. Contemplate most high poverty, most holy chastity, most blessed obedience absolute surrender perfect purity of heart. Embrace silence and solitude. learn the secret of suffering behold in awe the mystery fall prostrate before the reality of God Alone. In the presence of the Crucified Christ open the wound of Truth and fall victim to the all encompassing oblation of love. JMJ+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Jaja PPOP I did credit it to Sister Mary Angelique so it wasn't so much of a crazy random happenstance as it seemed, also Sister (I always call her Sadie still ) has a very particular style to her writing.

Catholicterp7 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 When your friend tells you that she saw some nuns and your first reply is "What were they wearing?" because you know that then you'll know exactly what community of sisters she saw.

Catholicterp7 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 So here's what my friend said. "she was wearing a long blue (almost denim looking) dress with a black cross and a white and blue headpiece. The younger girls were wearing the same type of dress, only it did not have long sleeves and they had on white shirts underneath theirs instead. They too had on black cross necklaces and white and blue headpieces. They were wearing regular shoes I believe." I honestly have no idea who it could be. Any ideas? My first thought was the Servants of God's Love but they don't wear a veil. I'm so confused! JMJ+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
