tnavarro61 Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 My brother and I were at at the pizza night this evening. We had games with an IVE priests and the Servidoras. Afterwards we had Rosary, LOTH before the Blessed Sacrament. Then we had the dinner. Guess what, t[b]hey surprised my brother and I, and another visitor, with a giant chocolate cake with many candles!!![/b] It is so awe.some! Then they sang a lot of birthday songs, in different languages. How cool is that? Too bad I have no pictures of it, but I will always remember it
Tally Marx Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 (edited) That is very cool, Nav! PS: It was my little sister's birthday yesterday, too! Edited February 18, 2011 by Tally Marx
TeresaBenedicta Posted February 18, 2011 Posted February 18, 2011 During my visit, one of the mother superiors from the mission in Guyana was showing pictures of the mission. She told us the story about this little old lady who lives in a bathroom. This lady would come by the convent everyday for lunch. On her birthday, the sisters made her cake and gifted her with a new dress. The old lady said it was the first time she had a birthday cake in years.

NovemberFourth Posted February 23, 2011 Posted February 23, 2011 Oh I love, love, love the Servidoras. I do wish they would have a presence here in the UK, or even in Spain.

TeresaBenedicta Posted February 25, 2011 Posted February 25, 2011 [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiSlbx7b2hE[/media] SSVMs singing goodnight to Our Lady. After dinner/recreation, the sisters sing a song to the Blessed Mother before silence begins. Then the last of the dishes are done, night prayer is said individually, and everyone retires for the night. In the morning, the day begins with an immediate invocation to Our Lady, as each sister kneels and prays three Hail Mary’s when the bell rings.
FutureSister2009 Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I just contacted this Order actually. I like them a lot and I'd like to keep them on the table as an option.
TeresaBenedicta Posted April 21, 2011 Posted April 21, 2011 I miss them [i]so[/i] much!! I guess it's only been three months since I last saw them. But during my senior year, I saw them about once a month at the least. I just want to go [i]now[/i]!!
tnavarro61 Posted April 24, 2011 Author Posted April 24, 2011 my bro just entered the IVEs this Easter Sunday. He left me a lot of books!
