Wonderful!! Thank you for sharing these! There aren't many places online with their pictures. From what I've seen just here, [url="http://www.mtstfrancis.com"]http://www.mtstfrancis.com[/url] (currently their page is not up) and their [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3G1KmarrhR0&feature=youtu.be"]video[/url]. They are often confused with the [url="http://www.franciscansoftheimmaculate.com/religious-life/history/contemplative-sisters.html"]Contemplative Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate[/url] (posted above :j) Some ways to distinguish them is that their giumpe extends down (like a bib) like other Poor Clares and their veil is darker. I talked with one FI Friar about them and he said another difference between them is that they were already Poor Clares and then they joined the FI family.

Are both orders not in the US? It is SO easy to get them mixed up-I didn't even know I was doing it until you pointed out the difference![/background][/size][/font][/color]

We have the contemplatives in Laherne in Cornwall (Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate)
They have houses in Italy and Brasil that I know of.

Thanks for the link! Does anyone know what they are doing here....Obviously its the 'take up your cross daily' but is this called anything specific, and is it practiced in other communities/orders? Thanks!

Yep, the Contemplative FSI have two houses (they often call them Contemplative Houses rather than monasteries it seems) in Italy, one in England and another in the Philippines. The Poor Clares of the Immaculate are all in Italy, 4 monasteries as of 2008. They were founded in 2002.

I'm not sure but I have seen a picture of the Capuchin Poor Clares at St. Veronica's monastery doing that too. I can't find the picture online though. It was in a little English booklet about her called, [url="http://www.worldcat.org/title/purgatory-of-love/oclc/24096831"][i]The Purgatory of Love[/i][/url], which I haven't been able to find available anywhere, except probably at her shrine.

I know, I met them a few times already (and they're always so happy to see me :clap:). Will be seeing them again next week :)

So I was thinking lately and if Jesus is the prince of peace, does that make nuns princesses of peace?

A beautiful thought! I like the sound of that, especially since nuns are generally so peace-filled :D
