Phatmass monks?

[Era Might]

I know we have quite a few Phatmassers entering the convent, but I haven't really seen any Phatmass males entering the monastery. Have I missed them? Show yourselves! :

Haha. Sure. I know we have at least one other Franciscan (Cappie).

I haven't see anyone entering a monastery though. Obviously, we won't have any monks chatting it up on the phorum. I doubt they have DSL in their cells.

We have to have at least ONE phatmasser that's gonna become a monk.

franciscan friars are the bomb. im so in love with your order and what you guys do.

Monk, as in living in a monastery, with an abbot and all that stuff...
that i am not.

I just entered and am a prenovice with Mendicant Friars as well, with the Augustinian Friars namely. The place i live in is called St. Augustine's Monastery. but it is a monastery in name only.

I'm looking into carmelite Monks

[PadrePioOfPietrelcino]

I thought about it, but I didn't have to go to far befoe I realized that it is not my vocation. Although I have always dreamed about becoming a hermit after retirement.

Which ones the O Carm.'s, the Discalced Carmelites? Or another?

I did a little bit of discerning with the Discalced in California, they were like second on my list. Well not really, i am not looking back, but i was impressed with their novitiate. The cool thing was when i learned that it was the same as the Augustinian novitiate.

As I've said a number of times, I've got my heart set on the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal *hearts and daisies*

Sweetness! That is an AWESOME Order
