NovemberFourth Posted December 5, 2015 Posted December 5, 2015 I am so pleased and thrilled for you! (But, between ourselves, is it wrong to be a little bit envious too?

JP--You could not have met Sister Mary Catharine (please note the spelling) when she was in formation (that is, before she took Solemn Vows) because you were not born yet. She has been a nun long enough to be Novice Mistress of the Community for a number of years. Edited December 7, 2015 by IgnatiusofLoyola
IgnatiusofLoyola Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 (edited) I thought Sister Aisling was entering this evening--shows what I know! It's a good thing I was already praying! In any case, entering earlier probably makes things much easier for the Community and gives Sister Aisling her own special day. Sister Aisling looks so happy--for her, the long wait (years!) is over. It's always so interesting to see what a Phatmasser looks like in real life. In my case, I remember Sister Aisling from pictures of when she was visiting the Community earlier, so I wasn't surprised. But usually I am surprised! The picture in my head is often very different! Here is a link to the pictures: http://summitdominicans.org/blog/2015/12/6/welcome-sr-aisling To quote a secular song: "Every new beginning is some other new beginning's end." This thread is titled "Good-bye" but ends with "Welcome." Edited December 7, 2015 by IgnatiusofLoyola
HopefulHeart Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 It is great to see the pictures!

krissylou Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Goodbye Inky! Although we get to follow you on the blog so you don't seem like you're really gone ...

Sr Mary Catharine OP Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Sr. Aisling just walked into my office with Sr. Mary Ana for the Sunday blessing of the cells. The 2 youngest in the novitiate do the novitiate and the 2 youngest in the professed do the rest of the monastery! I said to her, "Do you want me to post on Phatmass that you just came in and blessed the cells and say hello?" and she said, "SURE!"
Jennifer Posted December 13, 2015 Posted December 13, 2015 Thank you Sr. Mary Catherine for this up date. It's so good to know that Sr. Aisling is settling down in the Monastery. God Bless you all at Summit.
