IgnatiusofLoyola Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 I copied this from the Summit Dominicans blog. I'm sure our wise and beloved Dominican Sister will elaborate on this for us. We’re Livestreaming Sr. Maria Teresa’s Solemn profession! Posted on September 2, 2014 by Summit Dominican Nuns DSC_4981The Mass and Rite of Solemn Profession will be livestreamed! Join us at 10:00 AM DST on Saturday, September 6th if you can’t be with us in person! Just a wee disclaimer! This isn’t EWTN or Vatican Television doing this, just us with our webcam and a little (!) help from YouTube and Google Hangouts! You can subscribe to our YouTube Channel HERE. Here is the direct link for the livestream: Solemn Profession of Sr. Maria Teresa For any of you planning to listen to this, particularly those of you outside the U.S. who might not be as familiar with U.S. time zones--there is a small typo on the Web site. It says on the Web site (and in the quote above) that the service (and the livestream) will begin at 10:00 am DST. However there really is no such thing as DST. Right now, Summit, NJ, where the convent is located is on Eastern Daylight Time (EDT). I'm sure most of you already knew that Summit, NJ in the U.S. is on Eastern Daylight Time. However, I know that U.S. time zones can sometimes be confusing for those outside the U.S. (Just as I know that, as someone who lives in the U.S., I get confused sometimes with time zones outside the U.S.) Just a small FYI. Personally, I am VERY excited about Sr. Maria Teresa's Solemn Profession. I probably won't try to listen to the livestream because I have a very slow computer that doesn't do well with livestreams. I'm hoping that a video may be posted later, and in the meantime, I expect we will get to see pictures. In the "old days" when I was able to travel, and I always seemed to be on a plane going somewhere, a plane ride to NJ would have been easy for me. Those days are over, so on Sat. morning I will be with the whole Summit Community in prayers and rejoicing, if not there in person.
Feankie Posted September 5, 2014 Author Posted September 5, 2014 The Dominicans have several profession ceremonies posted on their YouTube channel. The videos of Christmas and a sledding party are great as well.

Not to do anything major, but to use find this nifty thing on the internet. Click to make it legible! The yellow vertical line to the right represents 10:00AM EDT on Saturday. Find your own time zone on the left, scan across and you can read off exactly when you need to be watching! For example: you can see I'm in the same time zone as Vienna - CEST or UTC+2. So I read across and find out that 10:00AM EDT is 4:00PM CEST. Which is good as I'm singing at Mass in the morning and now I know I'll have enough time to get back home. If you want to try it yourself, I found it here: http://everytimezone.com/ Hope this is useful to some.

Sr Mary Catharine OP Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 Actually, there is such a thing as DST. It's called Daylight Savings Time! :saint2:
Feankie Posted September 5, 2014 Author Posted September 5, 2014 Ah, Sister.....we have CENTRAL Daylight Savings time here. Perhaps yours is EASTERN time :)

AnneLine Posted September 5, 2014 Posted September 5, 2014 I dunno... I read that as 'Dominican Sister Time' myself...... probably should have been DNT..... but we WON'T go there! Prayers for you and Sr. Teresa Maria! I'm hoping and planning to join you from the western USA..... and in spirit if my body decides to not be willing. 7AM???? on Saturday???? aaaaggggghhhhh... Penance... it's not just for Dominicans..... ;)
puellapaschalis Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 7 minutes to go! [attachment=3302:Screen Shot 2014-09-06 at 15.51.15.png]
Strictlyinkblot Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 Lovely, too bad the visual feed cut out during the Litany of the Saints. Hope it'll come back on soon
marigold Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 Sound quality is terrible but congratulations to Sister Maria Teresa and the community! Link to the profession video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsFNsYWvGBY&list=UUsZOgMXn1HvFDolC1vcQ70g
Sr Mary Catharine OP Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 So disappointed that the feed cutout right at the profession! Obviously, I couldn't man the camera and Sr. Maria Teresa's sister offered to do it at the last minute because the person who was supposed to got sick. The audio actually wasn't very good for us sitting in the sanctuary. The speakers weren't picking up the sisters. NEXT TIME we'll do a better job! The ceremony was just wonderful and now everyone is having a great time in St. Dominic's hall!

Will these be posted on the blog at anytime? And a big congratulations to Sr. Maria Teresa.
brandelynmarie Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 Ad multos anos, Sister Maria Teresa! Many blessed years! :blush: :nunpray:
Sr Mary Catharine OP Posted September 6, 2014 Posted September 6, 2014 We've got a lot of photos on our facebook page!

Sr Mary Catharine OP Posted September 17, 2014 Posted September 17, 2014 Yes, you're right! Sr. Mary Magdalene was just voted on to make Solemn Profession January 1st! We are expecting 2 and maybe 3 postulants in the next 3 months as well! Deo gratias!
