May 2006 Retreat

[shortnun]

Well, the retreat is in full-swing. I wonder how many women went. I wonder if Sr. Carly is giving her vocation testimony.


PRAYERS for all the women there!

I talked to Sr. Gemma this morning. They have a 'smaller' turnout this year than they normally do, 80 - 90 girls. She said that she was happy that there would be a more intimate retreat this year.

Holy cow... 80+ girls is chaos where I come from.

80 is a lot. the first smme retreat i went on had 40 girls. the second one had 100. i liked the one with 40 much better. we got to know each other better.

80 is awesome--there were 150 (plus or minus 20) on the Feb. retreat. I wish I could be there this weekend, as they have an awesome priest and I really want to see their chapel, but I'm busy. Prayers instead.

Yeah, I wish I could be there too! Something wierd happened with my flight. I got to the airport and the airlines didn't have a record of my reservation. It turns out Expedia never processed my transaction, but still gave me a form of confirmation. The flight was reserved, but not paid for. Soo... I am here!

That's too bad FutureSoror...i bet it's a disappointment not to be able to go!

Kristina hasn't called yet so I'm not sure how things went. I'll let you know ASAP.
