[/quote] Answered my own question. From their news update emails: [quote]Dear Friends, Good news! The Today Show has plans to feature the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist this Thursday, February 1st. The show will air on NBC from 7:00 a.m. until 10:00 a.m. The Sisters' portion will likely be televised around 7:50 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. We also invite you to check out the latest additions to our website. See the "News" tab for details. God bless you and thank you for your ongoing support![/quote] For those of you who live in the Central Time Zone, you'll have to check if they delay the show by an hour or if they actually air it live. (For me it will still be on at 7:50am Central.) Edited January 31, 2007 by shortnun
BurkeFan Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Wow, I'm surprised I found out about when it would air here first!

When we had an American satelite we got everything but we dont have that anymore which is a good thing I suppose. Too much TV is never a good thing but I cannot wait to see my sisters on the Today show!!
SisterAli Posted January 31, 2007 Posted January 31, 2007 Is it called Good Morning America, or the Early Show....? I'm looking for the specific time and I don't see anything called the *Today Show* Anyone help me out?

The third morning show is the Today Show on NBC....they are all on at the same time in the morning but the today show happens to be my favorite

HeavenlyCalling Posted February 5, 2007 Posted February 5, 2007 It was pretty cool, although the boom of vocations isn't really happening as widely as they made it seem. We can always pray for that, of course!

We can always pray for that, of course! [/quote] I disagree. It IS happening although not in the numbers that the SMME experience. Other congregations and orders are so well known or high profiled. But I would say that as a whole, most religious communities are experience a new interest that is not like it was before. When I was discerning as a teenager (way back in the '80's) I knew NO ONE who was also considering a vocation. And I went to a very traditional small catholic school. Now, when I talk to young women, almost everyone of them knows at least 2 others who are discerning a vocation. Since I became novice mistress/vocation directress 2 1/2 years ago we've experienced a very noticeable increase in vocation interest. God willing we hope to have 2 enter early this year and 4 for aspirancy. That's a lot for us! I think it's a wonderful done story!
