[/quote] I am interested and have lots of respect for the Trappist and Carthusian orders also. Visited the Trappists a couple of times - I think I like them because they follow the rule of St Benedict fairly strictly. Don't think I'm called to either though.
HopefulBride Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 there is something about the Dominican way of life that is just...... I think it's the rule they follow.
PhuturePriest Posted November 12, 2011 Posted November 12, 2011 It saddens me to know that the Dominicans are winning. However, I'm fine, because there are way more Franciscans than Dominicans anyway, so we win in the long run.

LaPetiteSoeur Posted December 6, 2011 Posted December 6, 2011 FRANCISCANS need to come out and vote! Come on--the Dominicans AND the Carmelites are beating us!

Divine Mercy 9999 Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 Carmelites are number 1... but then my patron saint is Teresa of Avila. I really like Visitation Sisters, too.
Oremoose Posted December 7, 2011 Posted December 7, 2011 Trapists are hardcore. And when we say "order" are we including all congregations?
MargaretTeresa Posted December 19, 2011 Posted December 19, 2011 Franciscans and Salesians - def my top two right now. Add in FSP and DC and you have my top 4
