AlterDominicus Posted August 30, 2005 Author Posted August 30, 2005 Haha, your right about that...... How I wish it was October or November! But more so October!
FutureSoror Posted August 30, 2005 Posted August 30, 2005 I have like 15 brochures left from when I was handing them out for Sr. Joseph Andrew!
the_rev Posted August 31, 2005 Posted August 31, 2005 why not? It sounds cool... I kinda know Futur Soror, we could travel togethter
AlterDominicus Posted August 31, 2005 Author Posted August 31, 2005 It would be great if you could, but its all girls/woman. After all, it is religious life, but you could probably get by with the May 2006 retreat since there is going to be a priest there apparently an extremely wonderful friend of SJAB.
crusader03 Posted September 1, 2005 Posted September 1, 2005 I wish it was October too! But, um, not really! Next week would be fine. Haha! Oh, and I talked to SJAB about the retreats, and the priests all sound great... yes, especially the May one!!!!!!! Haha, but mum's the word.
AlterDominicus Posted September 1, 2005 Author Posted September 1, 2005 I wish it was next week. Haha, then after that October. "Mum's the word" Very interesting! I'm mostly an American sticking language with mom. Hahahaha.
catholicflower Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 (edited) I just bought my plane tickets for Michigan! I am ready to go Edited September 2, 2005 by catholicflower
AlterDominicus Posted September 2, 2005 Author Posted September 2, 2005 Where did you get your plane ticket at! (I am so tring to get mine)
zabbazooey Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 Northwest Airlines has a monopoly on Mineesota....so they can make it whatever price they want.
beata_virgo_maria Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 I'm getting my plane ticket ticket today or tommorow, I already have it on hold. : 7 weeks left!!
FutureSoror Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 I need to get mine yet! I've never flown before... any words of advice?
catholicflower Posted September 2, 2005 Posted September 2, 2005 (edited) I went to orbitz and decided that Northwestern had the best price @ $194 then I went to their website and got it for about $185. I am lucky because I can fly out of one of three airports (Reagan, Dulles, or BWI) and pretty much every airline in the US flies out of them so they have to price them competively. Tips: get tehre 90 minutes- 2 hours early. Be prepared to be bored. Make sure you bring several things to occupy you on the flight (depending on how long- my flight is 90 minutes). Dramine is good. Bring gum for going up and down. ***I would suggest buying tickets now because the prices are going to skyrocket (gas prices) Edited September 2, 2005 by catholicflower
crusader03 Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 Very exciting, everyone!!! SIX days until entrance!!!! My friend Ashley and I have been over at the Motherhouse for an average of 7 hours each of the past three days, and it's soooo great! Today was moving day, and we're all so excited about entrance AND even looking forward to a HUGE retreat!!!!
FutureSoror Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 I just got my tickets reserved! My Mom insists on comming with me since I've never flown before, she's staying at the airport's hotel. It will be nice to have her there, anyway, and I'll be more sure of what I'm doing when I have to fly by myself next time.

I'll probably talk to you on Monday the day before school starts. 7 Hours = Lucky, whenever I go to a convent (always the Little Sisters of the Poor) Average = 4 hours.... NOTE: PRAYER INTENTIONS = That the Lord MAY PROVIDE TRANSPORTATION to the OCTOBER retreat for me! Edited September 3, 2005 by AlterDominicus
Andrea348 Posted September 3, 2005 Posted September 3, 2005 If you can fly out of Ft. Lauderdale, Ft. Myers, Las Vegas, Los Angelos, Myrtle Beach, New York, Orlando, Tampa, or Washington....check out Spirit Airlines. www.spiritairlines.com I flew to detroit both times using them and go tickets for as cheap as $64 each way. The only thing is you might have to arrive a day early and stay a day late because of flight times, but that is no real tragedy.
jgirl Posted September 4, 2005 Posted September 4, 2005 Actually getting there early depends on where you live. I'm from S.t Louis, and 45 minutes is enough to get through security. When I flew from Normal, I only had to be there half an hour early to get on the flight. If you fly out of a bigger airport, then get there early. Also, don't bring scissors. Sometimes I wonder if TSA means "Takes Scissors Away" Also, wear socks because you take your shoes off. Southwest always has cheap flights, too. I fly Northwest because I have a lot of frequent flyer miles from them (I'll have 14,000+ after I visit the Sister Servants later this month)
