OnlySunshine Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 I was just browsing through the various communities listed in the Deo Est Gloria directory, and came across this beautiful little community that I had never heard of before. They do work in education, parish ministry, catechesis, and social services. [url="http://ols.org/"]Sisters of Our Lady of Sorrows in Shreveport, LA[/url]
HopefulBride Posted March 14, 2011 Posted March 14, 2011 For some reason they make me think of the Salesians. They look so happy - makes me miss my sisters even more.

the171 Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 Yes! They're all from their ministry at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette! The sisters there have a convent on campus.
HollyDolly Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 Glad to see that whatever they are doing is working in regards to vocations. I believe that they were in the book,Convent Life,printined in 1964.They have been here quite some time.
brandelynmarie Posted November 13, 2013 Posted November 13, 2013 Beautiful charism...beautiful community :)
loveletslive Posted November 13, 2013 Posted November 13, 2013 i met them at the FOCUS conference! really great, joyful sisters!!

The number of vocations is very high up there, a great job, has drawn attention even outside the U.S., that's why I found. I think said 30 seminarians and 17 religious sisters in a few years. http://ourladyofwisdom.org/
