OnlySunshine Posted October 23, 2012 Author Posted October 23, 2012 Here I am, about to leave for Bible Study and she still hasn't called. Patience is just so hard in times like these. Lord, give me strength!

TheresaThoma Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Mater when I read she is going to be calling you soon I got butterflies in my stomach! I hope you hear very very soon. BTW I offered up my communion for you today!
Nunsense Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Waiting for anything is hard, and when it is something you care about deeply, it is REALLY hard. Prayers for a beautiful outcome to all this waiting.
FutureCarmeliteClaire Posted October 23, 2012 Posted October 23, 2012 Praying and offering a lot up for you!!!
Totally Franciscan Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Just came in expecting news from Mater, but STILL no word. It is driving me nuts, I can only imagine how Mater is doing. Prayers for you, Mater. Jesus, I trust in you!
nikita92 Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 It is 6:23 PST ... Oh Lord, PLEASE ADD Mater into your loving community of these sisters!!! Amen
VeniJesuAmorMi Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Still very hopeful and praying! May you know His plan in all of this soon enough.
OnlySunshine Posted October 24, 2012 Author Posted October 24, 2012 Just an update: I finally talked to the Superior tonight after I got home from Church. The reason I have not heard from her is because she actually did not know the official decision. She was staying with family and just returned last week. However, she told me that Mother General sent a letter and I should have received it by now so I'm hoping it will come any day. It probably is floating around in the sorting offices somewhere. Please pray that it gets found and delivered! Other good news is that Sister will most likely be making a visit to our parish next week! My pastor did not tell me this tonight when I saw him but I have an inkling of suspicion he was trying to tell me -- he just couldn't find the right time since we were both so busy. I have to find some mode of transportation to see Sister while she is here. I don't know how I'm going to do it, but I will find a way like last time. In any case, the prayers must be continued! I WILL have an answer soon, God-willing!
savvy Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 (edited) This is hopeful news Mater. I do hope things work out for you. Edited October 24, 2012 by savvy
deusluxmea Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Oh, Mater, that is amesome. Hope you hear good news soon. I lit a candle at St Patricks NYC for your intentions.

OnlySunshine Posted October 24, 2012 Author Posted October 24, 2012 Thank you for your prayers! It was so nice just hearing the Superior's voice again. I missed her!
nikita92 Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Transportation...Bus if you have a local one, that goes in that area..or maybe a Taxi..or can you ask a friend or relative to help you out?...I'm going to assume that the letter is coming from overseas...depending on WHEN it was sent..it might take awhile. Prayers are continuing!

We have no public transportation around here except for seniors and disabled. Taxi cabs cost $40 round trip. And I don't have enough of a credit history to rent a car. My friend ended up driving me to the event. However, her sister is very ill so she hasn't been around at all. It's times like these where I wish my car really worked.
To Jesus Through Mary Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 MATER!! That is so great you finally talked to her. Now for the letter
emmaberry101 Posted October 24, 2012 Posted October 24, 2012 Thank you for the update Mater! I can totally identify with how good it is to hear (Mother) Superior's voice again.. I pray you find your way to meet your Sisters again, and that the letter makes it way to you pronto!
