HisChild Posted March 22, 2006 Author Posted March 22, 2006 She also helped found the Sisters of Life, as I'm sure you know. And her sister, Mother Gabriel, left Nashville to form SSEW. Nashville CD? Wooohooo, my fav song is Mine Forever.
AlterDominicus Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 The one I have is the one I bought with my food money at the Eucahristic Congress from the Nashville sisters I know in Stillwater in October called "Behold The Heritage" mom was telling me how she loved that CD (Really, I listen to it about 8 times a day!) I was just telling her about how I want to get the Mine Forever CD, I have five out of the 12 $.
jgirl Posted March 22, 2006 Posted March 22, 2006 [quote name='AlterDominicus' date='Mar 22 2006, 10:12 AM']Sheesh...Huzzah!! The SMME founders which everyone should know, were four former Nashville Dominicans one of the biggest out branched congregations I know, I'm actually listening to the Nashville Dominicans CD right now. I have a theoretical theory (of course) that the SMME is going to be a similar out branching community like the Nashville Dominicans who on average get about 20 postulants a YEAR. Besides Mother Mary Assumpta Long O.P. WAS the prioress of the Nashville Dominicans.

It seems that Phoenix is perfect--lots of Catholics and very few orthodox religious!

Either way AR is going to be one freaking blow of vocations. They already received the Pheonix Phive (PCPA's from Mother Angelica's monastery) aka. Desert Nuns, now The Dominican Sisters of Mary Mother of the Eucahrist. We should come up with a nickname for them. Like Marys ___ and when we find out how many of them are coming will put the number in the blank like i.e. "Mary's 10" Either way I dont care I am lovingly obsessed (spirtually with an emptiness to) with the Dominicam Sisters of Mary Mother of the Eucharist & I think dear [b]"[/b]Mother Vicar O' Mine[b]"[/b] knows that.

(Aside: I [u]finally [/u]got to catch a blip of her on EWTN the other day!) What about Sr. Joseph Andrew's sister..... (her name escapes me at this time)... or was she a foundress?

[right][snapback]918312[/snapback][/right] [/quote] It wouldnt be Sister Theresa Benedicta or Sister Mary David. I know how Mother Assumptas: "Sister Mission" thing works, those Mary's Duo at CUA are staying there, I think for a two year program, it might be four. But I think two. I'm placing my bet on four of July 22nd Perpetually Professed ones from 2005. Sister Mary Joseph, Sister Maria Faustina, Sister Aver Maria, and Sister John Mary. But if it was Sister John Mary they would have to assign a new Novice Mistress. I also think though that it wont have to be a fully professed Sister I mean those on mission still go back to the Motherhouse on Holidays and special days planned that they HAVE to be there.
HisChild Posted March 23, 2006 Author Posted March 23, 2006 Y'all are cracking me up, placing bets on sisters.
magnificat Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 Haha...btw, I met Sr. Ave Maria's sister last weekend...she's a postulant with the Srs. of life!
AlterDominicus Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 (edited) Hey guys we should make this into a game. Everyone gets to bet on four sisters who think will be the ones going to AR. Whoever wins, will get something, um...hmm...need to think of what though. LIke Hail Mary's!!!! I.e I bet 60 Hail Marys on so so so so Edited March 23, 2006 by AlterDominicus
HisChild Posted March 23, 2006 Author Posted March 23, 2006 I don't know anyone in the SMME. However. . .It's AZ not AR. AR is Arkansas. (lit bit of AZ pride, there lol)
AlterDominicus Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 AZ, why was I thinking of Arkansas? I have noooooooooooo clue - OH Wait I know someone from there!
HisChild Posted March 23, 2006 Author Posted March 23, 2006 Haven't a clue, darlin' It's ok, AZ will forgive you! :
cappie Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 [quote name='JamesTheYounger' date='Mar 22 2006, 09:30 PM']When are they gonna send some sisters to Australia? we need some orthodox orders here, its seems our only orthodox orders are cloistered. We desperately need good active orders over here to teach our kids the Truth. The SMME is definitely an inspiring order, it gives me a lot of hope for the future of the Church. [right][snapback]917597[/snapback][/right] [/quote] The Franciscan Immaculatine Sisters were founded by a Capuchin Friar in Italy. We have 3 sisters at our Seminary in Sydney. They run a retreat and Conference center work in our parish in Plumpton and the schools and are about as orthodox as you can get in an active order :
LilyofSaintMaria Posted March 23, 2006 Posted March 23, 2006 That is totally super! I am so happy for them! I went on retreat once and have been conversing back and forth with Sister Joseph Andrew. Wonderful, wonderful! Did you guys hear about the Oblates of Mary, Queen of the Apostles are moving entirely from PA down to MO! (I think that's the state!) They were invited by Bishop Burke from Wisconsin who was recently relocated. They are some more wonderful sisters you gotta check out if you haven't already. Bernadette
