Mary+Immaculate<3 Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 I've been in contact with the Order for around 7 months, and they're beautiful. I just thought I'd recommend you all to check them out. They're different from most religious orders, since they have brothers, sisters, priests, and external (lay) members. Their website is: Heartsofjesusandmary.com Up until pretty recently I've felt very drawn to them, but I have not completely forgotten them, since I love their charism and schedule. Feel free to ask me about them, since I know a LOT about them :)
Chiara Francesco Posted April 3, 2013 Posted April 3, 2013 Here's your link in a clickable form for them: http://heartsofjesusandmary.com/ They seem wonderful.
OnlySunshine Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 I contacted this order earlier in my discernment because I was interested in semi-contemplative life but they felt that they did not have enough of an apostolate that would suit me. I thought their works of mercy were really attractive. I hope they continue to receive many vocations! :)
Kateri89 Posted April 4, 2013 Posted April 4, 2013 I love their habits and that they're mainly contemplative :pray: I think that their convent is within driving distance from me so maybe I'll visit sometime. :saint:

I'm used to my email, because it automatically makes any ".com", ".org", etc. addresses into a hyperlink. I just figured Phatmass would too.

That is why I am considering other orders, kind of. It's a long story.

I like the postulant's habit as well, but I don't think they have any pictures of those on the current website (there were on the previous website). Not to mention, the aqua blue scapular and veil are my favorite color, and have been since I was very little :)
Mary+Immaculate<3 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Posted October 17, 2014 (edited) Hey guys! I don't go on Phatmass much anymore, school, dance yadda yadda. Anyway, just wanting to say I'm going on a brief visit with this order in November. This is basically my first "official" visit to a monastery (in that I'm actually considering it as a patilia life, not just going for a prayer service, service project, etc). If I get any pictures I'll try to post them. I'm so excited! Edited October 17, 2014 by Mary+Immaculate<3
KarenJoanna Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 I LOVE this order! I contacted them too however because of debt and other stuff I will put off discernment for now. I agree that their schedule sounds really good.
brandelynmarie Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 I actually know a couple who are lay members. :) They have a beautiful charism.
veritasluxmea Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 Congratulations! Have fun :) Do you know where they are located?

I agree that their schedule sounds really good. That's great you're considering them, I agree, the schedule is good. I hope your debt working off goes well. I actually know a couple who are lay members. :) They have a beautiful charism. Indeed :) It will be exciting, if I do proceed in discernment there, to eventually meet all the external members whenever they come. Congratulations! Have fun :) Do you know where they are located? Thank you, hopefully the trip will run smoothly. It will only be a 1-2 hour visit, but I am very grateful. It is in Hopedale, OH, 30 minutes from the Franciscan University of Steubenville.
Mary+Immaculate<3 Posted November 16, 2014 Author Posted November 16, 2014 (edited) I had a great visit :) I just went to Mass but was able to talk to the members before/afterwards. Gosh I already miss them. I told my best friend I'm going to relive this day in my head before going to sleep so I don't forget anything. I'll post some pics soon.

John Paul Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Thank you for posting these I love the Order of the Sacred and Immaculate Hearts of Jesus and Mary.Sr.Maria says you have made videos of them .(I told them that Mary Catherine says hi).I think you are the person that said that on the topic nun runs.
John Paul Posted October 5, 2015 Posted October 5, 2015 Yes, their habits are beautiful. I like the postulant's habit as well, but I don't think they have any pictures of those on the current website (there were on the previous website). Not to mention, the aqua blue scapular and veil are my favorite color, and have been since I was very little They won't show postulant habits anymre on their website because they don't want to show pictures of people who they are not sure are even gonna stay.
