Non-habited women's orders

[Guest Rick777]

I really don't know why all orders don't have habits? They are a great sign of Gods presence in our world. Kudos to orders with Habits.

One of the guys featured on the "Our Brothers" is at the Newman Center in Normal (I'm not sure if he's still with the community, but he's the Newman Spiritual Director). The new priest at Newman is the one who brought the Apostles of the Interior Life to America when he was in Champaign, which is probably why they are in Lawrence because he was there right before he came to Normal. He loves the Sisters, and he's an incredibly orthodox priest. I would definitely count them since they work in the US.

Hello, I wanted to reply to the original question. These congregations have modified habits and seem to show slow, but steady growth. However, they tend to attract women in their mid twenties to mid thirties which may not be what you're looking for.
