I got my letter late Friday and I am accepted!!! I will enter on Nov. 1st at Vespers.

I cannot believe how this Journey has gone and how I am going to be a Benedictine Sister instead of a Carmelite One! It's amazing How this Discernment has worked. "Not my Will But thine, Oh Lord". He has definitely put me where HE wants me. It just goes to show me that what I thought about myself was a small part of what HE thought about me and how he could Use me. I will always love the Carmelite Charism, and the Carmelite Saints who are still helping me. It's just that for the type of work that He wants me to do, working with Recovering Alcoholics and Addicts etc. this is the House and Home for me.

Also, I am excited because I really have Open Hands as to my Formation. I will enjoy learning something new; Benedictine spirituality.

I feel tremendous Peace and Blessings. I cannot even begin to say enough "thank you's" to all of you who have prayed for me during this past year. I will keep you in Prayer as I have been doing.

After I enter I will post again and Let you know what is happening. Right now I am sorting weeding and Packing.

God's Grace and Peace be upon all of you,
Love,
+
