VeniteAdoremus Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Level up! (Okay, so I'm a geek... sorry! ) Congratulations to you and your House, Sister! May there be a lot of postulants and novices to follow Sr. Diana Marie and give you grey hairs
Marieteresa Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 (edited) Congrats! Does anyone know where they got her name from? Edited February 11, 2007 by Marieteresa

[/quote] Sister took her name after Bl. Diana, one of the first nuns of the Order and also her mom's name is Diana. The title is well, kinda obvious! Sister will take Corpus Christi as her feast day.
Marieteresa Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 Thanks Sr. Mary Catherine answering my question and again congrats! I hope and pray that many more will join your wonderful community there. Just wondering are there any more lined up for entrance this year?

stlmom Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 I'm so glad the Summit Dominicans have this blog and are willing to share these events with the "outside world". It has so much value as a reminder of the viability of religious life. For many women, it may put that first spark to their vocational aspirations. I wish every religious community would share joyous occasions like this with the rest of the Church.

There may be another but it's too early to tell. We have a 206 week aspirancy that a young woman makes before entrance so it takes longer for the entrance process.
Marieteresa Posted February 11, 2007 Posted February 11, 2007 A 206 week aspirancy? wowzer, Does the aspirant do the aspirancy and then return home? Iam just wonder why such a long aspirancy or rather whats the history behind it. Thanks!

[/quote] I just want to clarify, I believe Sr. Mary Catharine meant to say that they have a 2-6 week aspirancy, not 206 week aspirancy.

AlterDominicus Posted February 14, 2007 Author Posted February 14, 2007 I'd be willing to make a 306 week aspirancy! :
