Province of St. Martin de Porres (southern): 3 novices. See their Facebook page - things get all hinky when I try to post the link here. 

 

No word yet on the Province of the Holy Names (western), but they've been thriving for the last ten or twelve years.

The Institute of Christ the King does all of the ceremonies in the same week. So this year there was : 

4 july : the new seminarist received the cassock (17 of them) 
5 july : minor orders by the bishop of Fiesole (15 of them)
5 july : giving of the canon's habits
6 july : ordination as a deacon by the emeritus bishop of Kansas City (15)
7 july : ordination as a priest by Mgr Burke (11)

Word from the Western province has arrived: 6 novices in 2016. 

So for the US Dominicans, there are a total of 30 novices nationwide. Pretty dang good!

Ceaseless-Longing

The Franciscan Sisters of Penance of the Sorrowful Mother (aka the TOR Sisters, at least locally) have recently welcomed 3 postulants, pictured below. The one on the front right was active on Tumblr for years.

It wouldn't let me insert a photo of the 3 women who entered the noviate, making 5 novices total. (One of the second year novices is a very good friend of mine! #collegeroomies).

Again, couldn't insert picture, but 3 woman took their First Profession of Vows. Two women celebrated the 25th anniversary of their final vows.
