Saw this on Fr. Z's blog.  Looks like they are based in Austria, but in many countries including here in Detroit.

I've seen them on the IRL site here, http://db.religiouslife.com/reg_life/irl.nsf/org/130  I believe those Opus Sanctorum Angelorum priests/organization is a very orthodox one, http://www.opusangelorum.org/english.html I didn't realize these Sisters were associated with them. I don't know much about them, but I heard a talk from one of their priests once (on a borrowed old cassette tape) that was very good and have seen pamphlets here and there that they publish. All very good stuff! :like:

If I remember correctly, these sisters attend (at least sometimes) Assumption Grotto in Detroit. 

 

edit: I just checked the addresses - they live like right next door to the Grotto - from what I've seen on various blogs, they have wonderful Masses in both the OF and EF there.

Wow, sounds like their worth checking out although I couldn't really get a sense of how active they are.  They say on their website that it depends on the particular convent which is a little confusing.

_{Bishop Athansius Sneider is a member of this order :saint2:  The sisters require a 2-year aspirancy followed by a 2-yr postulancy and they do not consider older vocations.}

_{The video about the life of St. Theotonius is fascinating, no wonder this order was resurrected, they have a glorious history!}
