DameAgnes Posted June 17, 2009 Posted June 17, 2009 [quote name='loveletslive' post='1893685' date='Jun 16 2009, 08:11 PM']ahhh i LOVE those sisters. i was at their convent a few weeks ago. they are so beautiful. also, cool fact about sister maria frassati. at WYD'08 she got to "stand guard" by bl. pier giorgio frassati's body for several hours!![/quote] That really is very cool. I have always wondered why they did not have Pier Giorgio's body exposed in a glass casket like other relics. Dominican Soul, I am sorry that you were hurt to hear of another "Miriam" I can imagine that did scald a bit. But you're KILLING me. A secret process for names? I must know! :-)

kavalamyself Posted July 8, 2009 Posted July 8, 2009 [quote name='TeresaBenedicta' post='1888497' date='Jun 11 2009, 01:30 PM'] Oh man. I can't stop smiling! Soooooooooo, I go to Mass this morning, grudgingly dragging myself out of bed to make the morning Mass at my parish (all the noon Masses are a good 20/30 minutes away). I'm sitting in the second to last pew with one of my friends who will be entering the Poor Clares in a few weeks. Aaaand Mass starts, and out of the corner of my eye I see the graceful flow of something white enter the pew behind me. I recognized that habit immediately!!! A Dominican of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist!!! I could scarcely contain my excitement as I grinned to my friend beside me. And I got to talk with the Sister after Mass!!! And it was wonderful!!! And I am soooo full of joy right now!!! She's making her final vows on August 4th!!!! Apparentally she grew up going to the dominican parish about 1/2 hr from where I live, and she's out visiting her family, and one of her best friends goes to my parish! Wonderful!! God is good!!! I was just on their website last night!!! AND I dreamt about them. Hmm... Just thought I'd share my joy! [/quote] This is a true sign from God. I am going to continue reading your posts.
Noemi Posted July 22, 2009 Posted July 22, 2009 Dominicans... please, pray for my friend, she will invest (enter novitiate) in 7th August! I'm really curious about her as I will visit the Dominicans from 9th Aug till 14th Aug - then I'll go home (=Servite Nuns... For 10 days... ahh...)
