i<3franciscans Posted November 5, 2011 Posted November 5, 2011 Franciscans duh. And the Little Sisters of the Poor, they hold a special place in my heart!

brandelynmarie Posted November 6, 2011 Posted November 6, 2011 Dominican here with a smattering of Carmelite. (Funny how that happens... )

organwerke Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 I voted Benedectines, in particular I like very much the Solesmes congregation. But I also like the Missionaries of Charity very much.
Cherie Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 Franciscan and Carmelite Once my kids are older, I'm going to seriously consider joining the Third Order Carmelites.
InPersonaChriste Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 Benedictines and Missionaries of Charity
Feankie Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 (edited) Okay, so I'm torn. I chose two---Franciscan and Benedictine. I love the PCPA's (perhaps because I am friends with the nuns and help support 2 monasteries I've come to love their Franciscan spirituality and their devotion to the Blessed Sacrament. Edited November 7, 2011 by Francis Clare
Luigi Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 Dominican, specifically Domincan Missionaries for the Deaf Apolstolate. I have a Domincan personality/mindset - pray and share the fruits of prayer.

PhuturePriest Posted November 7, 2011 Posted November 7, 2011 Franciscans most definitely. They are the most popular Order, and there are about thirty-five thousand of them at the very least in the world. Without them, the world would be in chaos. I want to join the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal so badly, and there are rarely Orders that are half as extreme as them. There are some Monastic Orders such as Trappists which are more extreme, but when it comes down to the regular Orders such as Dominicans, Carmelites, and Franciscans, the Franciscans have a much more extreme lifestyle.

It just seemed to me when I had read the duties and responsibilities, that it wasn't suited to me in my current situation. But at your advice I will look more closely. I feel a tugging on my heart for something like this and it may just be what the Lord is asking of me. Thank you for caring!
