FutureSister2009 Posted October 23, 2011 Posted October 23, 2011 I like both those rings. I want one badly
MarysLittleFlower Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 wow these are beautiful I have made the Total Consecration also and for a while I've been looking for the "little chain" ie: bracelet that St Louis de Montfort mentions... however I don't know where to find one like that! but I also love the idea of wearing a ring! especially for those who are discerning religious life. I want one now too lol :D

The chains can actually be found at FUS' website: [url="http://bookstore.franciscan.edu/ePOS?store=421&item_number=40000005688&form=shared3%2fgm%2fdetail.html&design=421"]Curb Chain for Consecration[/url]
beatitude Posted October 25, 2011 Posted October 25, 2011 I will probably want something special to commemorate the occasion when (and if) I take my vows, and a ring may be a good thing to choose - for purely practical reasons. I would like some subtle way to signal my unavailability. However, women in the secular institute I hope to join are typically encouraged not to display any outward sign of their status, and I'm not sure whether the ring would be a violation of that quiet hidden spirit.
OnlySunshine Posted October 26, 2011 Author Posted October 26, 2011 I just received one of the most spectacular presents from one of my CRHP sisters tonight! I was considering not attending because I was having stomach cramps, but the Holy Spirit gave me a nudge and I took some Pepcid and went on my merry way. I am SO glad I did! The lady who the first post was originally about gave me a ring just like hers!!! It turns out that she originally ordered a woman's ring, but decided to order a man's ring because it was bigger and more comfortable for her finger, so she gave me her old one! I can't wear it on my left ring finger because it is too small (size 6, I believe), but I am wearing it on my left pinkie. I plan to ask a jeweler if he can size it because it is sterling silver. I am so, so, SO thankful that I went tonight. I feel much better about going and I just love being with my CRHP sisters!
