DameAgnes Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 I know it's totally shallow of me, but I love these habits. http://www.saintbenedict.com/index.php/sbc-newsblog/blog/item/1722-sister-gabriel-novice
Jennifer Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Thank you for sharing. Sister Gabriel Marie looks so happy as she enters the Novitiate.
clk Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 It is totally shallow Dameagnes, but I love it too. Beautiful photos. God bless!
BarbTherese Posted August 30, 2014 Posted August 30, 2014 I don't think it is shallow to like certain habits more than others - only normal to my way of thought. Shallow might enter in if one is discerning and a habit that one likes is to be a defining factor in one's choice. PS I thought the habits were particularly lovely too DameAgnes! :) ...........and congratulations to Sister Gabriel Marie. A real physical transformation to appearance takes place when a postulant is clothed in the habit ........... and a lovely and appropriate transformation as the new novice starts out on a completely new stage of her religious life journey.
Sr Mary Catharine OP Posted August 30, 2014 Posted August 30, 2014 Did you see the photo of the man holding that cute baby? I taught him how to read in 1st grade! He's now a lawyer! :hehe2: He was handful back then!
puellapaschalis Posted August 30, 2014 Posted August 30, 2014 Did you see the photo of the man holding that cute baby? I taught him how to read in 1st grade! He's now a lawyer! :hehe2: He was handful back then! I wondered if you'd recognise anyone in those photos, Sister :)
Carla Posted August 30, 2014 Posted August 30, 2014 Meany prayers for sister Gabriel i her Vocation journey.I have never seen this kind of habit and and sisters with this white collars.In my country nothing similar exist.Is this have some meaning?
Sr Mary Catharine OP Posted August 30, 2014 Posted August 30, 2014 I wondered if you'd recognise anyone in those photos, Sister :) Sure do! Pretty much know everyone! The sisters stay with us several times a year if they are going to a conference or something. The habit is modeled on the old Maryknoll habit. (Not the veil!) They used to have a sash instead of a belt but that got to be inconvenient.
nikita92 Posted August 31, 2014 Posted August 31, 2014 Such a wonderful community! Yes.. The habits are very "nunny"! Makes my heart leap!! ;))
Lady-Indis Posted September 1, 2014 Posted September 1, 2014 Oh, My! I didn't know she was a novice yet! (I've met the lady before...) Yes, the habits are nice, aren't they? God bless you all, Lady-Indis
DameAgnes Posted September 1, 2014 Author Posted September 1, 2014 These sisters also model their habit on Maryknoll http://www.cjd.cc/
Filumena Posted September 3, 2014 Posted September 3, 2014 (edited) WOW I know this novice. Her family attends the local FSSP parish and she sang in the choir and schola. Beautiful voice and really great family. She is really funny and friendly and I'm so happy for her. BTW I just joined so hello everybody and thank you all for your posts (which I have lurked through for a while now lol). Edited to add that these habits remind me of St. Faustina.
