As many of you know, I am applying to the Sisters of St. Francis of Perpetual Adoration. This thread is a continuation of "Visiting Religious Sisters of Mercy"... I moved it because it's now a different topic! It's now my journey to apply and see what happens...
So I finished the paperwork and sent it in mid-March, and yesterday Sister Lois and I schedule a time for my interview!! The date is set for May 13th... I don't know what we will be talking about, but it's the 2nd step in a VERY long process!
I just wanted to share the news that I am moving to the next step in the process! Praise God!

Jenny, thanks for starting this thread. I believe you are applying to a very fine community, and I think your giving them some exposure here on PM might prompt others to give them a second look. I really enjoyed the video they did a while back of the "Rappin' Nuns"! Hopefully they will update their website to reflect the growth in their novitiate! God bless and have a glorious Easter!

I'll keep you in prayer. I think you should look upon it as a sign that Our Lady is specially watching over you since your interview date is on the feast of Our Lady of Fatima.

Thank you everyone... And I didn't know that my interview was on the feast of Our Lady of Fatima! Thanks be to God!

This community gives good retreats. It is certainly a time to spend peaceful time with Our Lord. Keep looking on the website for retreat opportunities.

And how we anticipate seeing you in Rappin nuns part 2!! Best of luck and keep us informed. This looks like such a solid group, and very joy filled.

Update: The interview may be moved to April 29th. Sister Lois needs to find some stuff out with her schedule, and she will let me know if that is possible...
Also I emailed her and let her know that I am totally free to enter this fall, and she said "that coming in the fall sounds like a great plan"! Horray!!!

April 29th is the feast of St. Catherine of Siena....a good Dominican saint can pray for you as you move toward your Franciscan vocation!

OO! I know one of their sisters. She was a cloistered nun but left to join them. She absolutely loves it in their order. :D

My prayers are with you!

Sister Lois just notified me today that there is another woman (my exact age) that is entering with me! Yeah! Also, there is a woman coming to talk to her about "something" tonight after supper. Please pray for her.
I'm so excited!

**Off-topic! Please pray for the students involved in the Virginia Tech shooting.**
