Laurentina1975 Posted February 28, 2006 Author Share Posted February 28, 2006 Unfortunately, I did not want to make the Sisters feel like movie stars. I only took a few. It was a blessing just to spend the day with them. I think I learned more in that day long experience (for my discernment) than ever! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that I am inching closer to my YES to God and am closer to giving Him my All. To me, they seem a lot like Alton...but their habits are soooooooooo awesome!

They are kind of tailored Actually they have a seamstress who isn't a Sister who makes their habits and postulant jumpers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piccoli Fiori JMJ Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I heard from my YM I was missed at the retreat... I was really looking forward to going to... Looks like it was absolutely wonderful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laurentina1975 Posted March 1, 2006 Author Share Posted March 1, 2006 Sr. Mary Michael sent me some more pics, but I am waiting to see if it is ok that I post them. We missed you! I would have helped you get there if you needed a ride or something. Are you going to be able to attend the IRL? Let me know...Lauren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piccoli Fiori JMJ Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 No, it wasn't a matter of needing a ride... my grandpa is in the hospital and has been getting worse for nearly a week now. I was with him or watching my sister for my mom while she was there and I also had to pick up my mom so she could take a shower and change clothes. I don't know about IRL and I don't think I would be able to go because of the RE classes I teach. Maybe in the future... we shall see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The IRL conference is the best of the best vocation fairs. Not only is it on the 5 billion acres of one of the most beautiful seminaries, but ALL the orthodox communities are there. You tend to find all the habited Sisters/Nuns there. It's sponsored by the institute on religious life. Google the name and check out the website, you will see. See if you have a class, it is Saturday April 22, 2006. Is there anyway you could go? I mean it will be sooo fun. Well, let me know later. In the meantime I will pray for you and your grandpa! May God bless you abundantly! Lauren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to many of these things to chat with the religious and see what makes them 'tick.' Thanks for your prayers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
