vee Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 I am so confused! All I know is if I see white I assume they are an OP...
Sr Mary Catharine OP Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 Usually a community has to be established canonically for awhile before it is aggregated. Ann Arbor was just made an institute of diocesan rite so probably it won't be too long before they are.

Well, most of the time you are correct but today with so many new communities starting you can't assume that just because a community says it is Dominican/Carmelite,etc. they are.
AveMariaPurissima Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 I got Ann Arbor's most recent newsletter in the mail a few days ago, and the front page has an article about how they were just granted "full aggregation into the Dominican Order" this past December 27th.

This is very true. A community of sisters I know wears a white formal habit on Sundays and feast days, and a simpler grey habit during the week - they are Franciscan.
vee Posted April 26, 2015 Posted April 26, 2015 I apologize for my previous blanket statement post. I meant it tongue in cheek and didn't even add any emotes to help convey that.
