Mary's Margaret Posted March 27, 2012 Share Posted March 27, 2012 Yesterday, on the Solemnity of the Annunciation of the Lord, the Queenship of Mary Community was established as a private association of Christian faithful and received their habits. Four women professed their temporary vows and the fifth is a novice. This picture was taken in the Archbishop's chapel in Notre Dame Cathedral, Ottawa, Canada Unfortunately, I had to take the photo off this post as it wouldn't accept it. (I got a message saying something about the "image extension is not allowed on this community") However, you can see pictures on the Archbishop's blog here [url="http://archbishopterry.blogspot.ca/"]http://archbishopterry.blogspot.ca/[/url] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marigold Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 I think this is lovely just as a photograph. What a remarkable face! On the habit side of things, it's interesting to me how this nun, a Greek Catholic (so, worshipping like Orthodox but under Rome), shows both your thing of having an uncovered neck, and our thing of a tall hat. It seems to have been incorporated into a modern Latin veil. It's strange that it's being worn outside of church. And it's tilted forward - I wonder how it stays on? I never stop being amazed at human inventiveness [img]http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d42/burning_string/2692639109_e4db09c926_z.jpg[/img] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is harder for the younger sisters to get into the old habit so now it is just modified veil the whole time. And I think they are buried in their habit, whichever habit they were invested into. But, yes. The pictures are wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
