AccountDeleted Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 (edited) The same English priest who told me about the Franciscan nuns in Lanherne, also told me about these nuns, who are part of his order. He says their spirituality has a lot of Carmelite in it, since they came from Spain originally. Does anyone here know anything more than what I can find googling? Any personal contact with them? Thanks. They have a website but it isn't very informative. http://www.curzonpark.org.uk/ Edited January 11, 2010 by nunsense Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humbleheart Posted January 11, 2010 Share Posted January 11, 2010 I don't know them myself, but I know someone who has been there to visit. I will ask her about them when I next see her. In the meantime, why don't you write to them? Getting information second-hand is never as good as speaking to someone who is immersed in the life.

[/quote] Well, I would but I am actually being a little bit naughty already in even looking things up online. My SD told me to wait six months before discerning religious life again, and it has only been four months, so I am jumping the gun a little. My SD is in Rome right now, and I was being very good until one of the visiting priests started talking to me about religious life and these different communities he had heard of in the UK (he is from Ealing Abbey in the UK) and this got me curious so I googled them. My SD won't be back in town for another two weeks, so I can't ask if it's ok to start writing to communities yet, so I won't but I thought a little research wouldn't be too bad. And I would love it if your friend had more info on them. I will write at some point, but just not yet.

If you ever watched DS9 you'd probably remember Jadzia Dax who is the eighth host of the Dax symbiont.
