vee Posted September 1, 2011 Posted September 1, 2011 [quote name='faithcecelia' timestamp='1314809032' post='2298105'] You wouldn't have been the first! I have just read about one whose profession was delayed by 4yrs because her father had said the moment she stepped out of the enclosure he would take her home. She prayed that if told undder obedience to leave, that she would die before she went over the threshold, and when it was suggested she go to another convent to illustrate her freedom rather than spend the day with her family, she did indeed collapse the evening before she was due to go, with the illness that did finally take her life. [/quote] When I wrote that I was thinking "I bet this has happened before" and sure enough it almost did!

Chiquitunga Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 [quote name='faithcecelia' timestamp='1314758122' post='2297868'] This photo is of the then Sr Mary of Jesus (who later as Mother Mary of Jesus founded most the UK Carmels). The photo was taken on the day of her canonical examination where she, as was the norm at the time, would leave enclosure for a day to demonstrate that she was free to do so, and have her vocation tested by the bishop or his representative before the prioress was permitted to accept the novice for profession. It was also the norm to spend time with the family that day, when they could hug, kiss, take photos etc. Even so, there is something odd!!! Can anyone work it out? There is actually an almost identical one of Blessed Elizabeth of the Trinity somewhere. [img]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k216/ruthbale/007.jpg[/img] [/quote] Here are the ones of Blessed Elizabeth of Trinity from [url="http://www.amazon.com/Light-Love-Life-Elizabeth-Trinity/dp/0935216073"][i]Light Love Life[/i][/url]. I couldn't find them anywhere online. Sorry for the blurriness. Still trying to figure out this scanner .. That was nice they allowed Mother Mary of Jesus to wear the black veil for the occasion.

faithcecelia Posted September 3, 2011 Author Posted September 3, 2011 Ah thanks for those pics, I was obviously wrong! I wonder who I have seen though, definately one before M Mary of Jesus....will have to go through all my Carmelite books again. Any excuse, eh???!
