Feankie Posted January 30, 2012 Posted January 30, 2012 The slideshow from OLAM has some really old pictures and some recent ones, and some inbetween. Was it newly made? I wonder why they included pics of sisters who are no longer there?
Lumiere Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 [quote name='Francis Clare' timestamp='1327967380' post='2377912'] The slideshow from OLAM has some really old pictures and some recent ones, and some inbetween.

Their home page is [url="http://www.cgwosthemovie.com/_/Cloistered_Gods_Women_of_Steel.html"]here[/url]. It seems to be a site promotong a movie about OLAM.
Libcath2000 Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 Hello all, I joined this ‘Phorum’ mainly because of this thread! I absolutely love habits, both for men and women religious. I myself discerned at one point with two distinct Roman Catholic religious communities and was eventually accepted into the aspirancy program of one of them before finally deciding that a religious vocation was not where I was being called. Since that time, my spiritual journey has taken me to very different pastures, but I still have a great respect and fondness for the faith I was born and raised in. For now, I would like to contribute images of religious habits that I don’t think have been included on these pages before. Most are from Roman Catholic sources, and if they are not, I shall clearly label them. I'll try to add at least one or two a day. I personally do not endorse, or promote any of these groups, whether canonically recognized or not. I simply like religious habits and I like to share them with others.

Gemma Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 [quote name='Mary's Margaret' timestamp='1316439045' post='2306920'] GraceUK The Servants of St. Agatha and Venerable Zelie Martin wear a white tunic and pink scapular and veil. Their apostolate is to care for those with breast cancer and their families. I couldn't find much about them, but what is online sounds like they're a new community. Hope this helps. I found the information here: [url="http://cloisters.tripod.com/stagatha/"]http://cloisters.tripod.com/stagatha/[/url] [/quote] We don't have any aspirants for this proposed charism. Blessings, Gemma

I know that the work that religious priests, brothers and sisters do is what really matters. Religious are invaluable to the life and future of the Universal Church. PS: I love this emoticon!
StayingFaithful Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 Thank you sharing these photos. I especially enjoyed the face of the little boy in the picture where the Dominican sister is juggling. Does anyone know where the monastery of Carthusian Nuns in the photo is located? Thanks, again.
StayingFaithful Posted February 1, 2012 Posted February 1, 2012 Does anyone know what Community the nun who is kneeling in Eucharistic Adoration is from? (see photo from MargaretTeresa on 7.11) Thanks!
