[/quote] McKenzie, a seminarian told me a while ago that I ought to found a Carmelite order with Perpetual Adoration...would you care to be Mother Superior? We'd figure out some way to do an MC apostolate.
Totus Tuus Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 How about the [i]Poor Clares[/i] of [b]Perpetual Adoration[/b]?
corban711 Posted March 3, 2005 Posted March 3, 2005 [quote name='Ave Maria' date='Feb 28 2005, 09:00 PM'] JMJ I've met a few Carmelite Sisters from Alhambra last summer. My friend and I are interested in attending a retreat hosted by them in June [word is i heard it was a free retreat, to stay with them for nine days! how awesome!]. I'm discerning upon the Lord's Will for me, and discerning upon what religious order to join, if it be the Lord's Will for me to become His Spouse. I recently went to a vocations retreat, which lasted a week, in Dover, Delaware -- hosted by the Leaven of the Immaculate Heart of Mary [LIHM] Sisters. They are a part of the Alliance of the Two Hearts congregation. And they are amazing! Mass, Liturgy of the Hours, Rosary, Adoration, Confession -- everyday! They're missionary sisters, so whenever they're not on mission, they're praying. They are devoted to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Their spiritual director is Fr. Edgardo Arellano, what a holy priest! Praise be to God! [He has a show on EWTN titled "One in Their Hearts".] I ask for prayers for Fr. Edgardo and the Alliance of the Two Hearts Brothers and Sisters. I also ask prayers for my own discernment. I am praying for all of you! God Bless! Ave Maria! -sara [/quote] That's awesome! do you go to Steubenville by any chance? outside of this area, those are really the only people I know who know those Carmelite sisters.
God Conquers Posted March 6, 2005 Posted March 6, 2005 The diocesan priesthood and the [url="http://www.companionscross.ca/whoweare3.htm"]Companions of the Cross[/url] The Companions are one of the most incredible and fastest-growing new communities of priests. One time when Fr. Bob, the founder had a meeting with Fr. Anthony of the Legion of Christ, one of the legionary fathers told a companion that the Legion was like the Army... but that the Companions were like Guerillas, they go places and do things that the regular army can not. They are all awesome and holy... check them out! Watch the videos... even though they look a little early 90's.

If I lived in Canada, I'd consider joining them.

[/quote] JMJ Do you happen to know their charisms? I'm interested in learning more about these Carmelite Sisters. Oh, and no, I don't go to Steubenville. I actually live in southern California; I met a few Sisters last summer at the Catholic Family Conference. I believe Sr. Scholastica was one of the Sisters we spoke to. Praise God! God bless. Ave Maria!

crusader03 Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Off the top of my head, I can name eight young women who will, God willing, be entering this August 28!!
crusader03 Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 And that's all I know of. I'm pretty positive there are more, but I just don't know them.
Dudette Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 crusader03. You're on Seton and BOL aren't you? I think I've seen you around.
crusader03 Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Yep, I'm a Seton grad and a sophomore at Christendom. Very unimaginative when it comes to screennames.
Dudette Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Haha, I thought I've seen you around. Anyway, welcome to Phatmass.
jgirl Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Wow! 8 is AWESOME! I wonder how many girls are entering Nashville in August. Whoever says that the religious life is dying or needs to be morphed into goddess worship and perm and pantsuit wearing needs to be smacked! I just hope somebody enters with me, but if not, I should still be uberhappy! Also, to Ave Maria, I'm not sure if novices can write letters, but if they can, you should write to Sister Isabelle with questions about that Carmelite order. She's a first year novice there, and she is amazing. We used to say it was almost as if she floated.
FutureSoror Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 (edited) Yay!! We have another one on phatmass for the SMME! Were you at the retreat in October? Are you going to the one in May? Edited March 16, 2005 by FutureSoror
Fiat_Voluntas_Tua Posted March 16, 2005 Posted March 16, 2005 Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist Amazing Order/Community! The Vocation Director talked in my Bendictine Spirituality (At Benedictine College in Atchison Kansas) class about the Eucharist and the Order. Check them out...they are rock solid!
