I found this picture on a PM nun picture thread. I think it was from an IRL meeting? I called the IRL, and no one seemed to know who they are...[img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/bigthink.gif[/img]
hmmm?

I don't believe I've ever seen nuns like that. [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/think_head.gif[/img] Hmmm.. maybe some Dominicans? [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/idontknow.gif[/img]

The guy at IRL thought the Dominicans from Justice,IL, but then wasn't sure since their habit is different even from the original Dominican (Justice) was different [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/weep.gif[/img] Danke!

Well, it's not the [url=http://www.sacredheartsisters.org/index.html]Sister Servants of the Sacred Heart[/url]. They have the forehead piece and black veil, so that was the first group I thought of, but their collars are different. If you click on the newsletter, you can see pictures of their current habit.

I can't tell how old this pic. is . . . but if it was from the 1960's it could be the Dominican Nuns from Blauvelte. See here on their blog (scroll down a bit): [url="http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_GMbnbz-tqa0/Slyei8izxRI/AAAAAAAAAng/oHpBy5cc7Oo/s400/St%2BDominic's%2BBlauvelt%2B1960s.jpg&imgrefurl=http://opblauvelt.blogspot.com/2009/07/evolution-of-habit.html&usg=__EJLsKftJhZTR_UPlBTfnHO1sxAI=&h=320&w=400&sz=26&hl=en&start=3&sig2=bj2SJdgfDR4FJpjPoGjFyQ&um=1&tbnid=wVE0vn_Qd8H8_M:&tbnh=99&tbnw=124&prev=/images%3Fq%3DSisters%2Bof%2BSt.%2BDominic%2BBlauvelt%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26um%3D1&ei=i0lTS7v7MIjIMovr_YoJ"]CLICK HERE[/url]

It was from a 2006 IRL meeting.

Hmm... perhaps you could write to them and ask for a list of who attended the meetings that year? Good luck! Like your screen name! :cool:

I already have, but they aren't very good at replying![img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/sadwalk.gif[/img] I also called the IRL, but they never sent the list, either! Thank you, I like my screen name, and it is easy to remember!

This is a very interesting picture. I would say for certain they are Dominicans, but certainly none that I recognize. I would very much like to know who they are.

Well, it is official. The IRL finally emailed me. They donn't know who these nuns are, and don't have complete record of all the communities in attendance.[img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/ohno.gif[/img] I am terribly depressed, and have just found out that next year it is possible that I will be required to take Biology.[img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/funeral.gif[/img]

Wow... I'm kinda disappointed that the IRL really didn't know!! :huh:

And for biology... :console: Just let it show you how crazy-amazing God is on a very physical/material level. :nerd:

I am trying to let your encouragment make me feel better...can you do anything about the yarn I got? It was the wrong color, and the baby is due in June![img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/shock.gif[/img] [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/shock.gif[/img]

What color is the yarn? And is the baby a boy or girl? :)

(I am an avid -- or some might say obsessive :P -- knitter/crocheter...)

Now this is really beginning to bother me! I just checked my list of "traditional" orders just in case they would match, and I couldn't find them there. I'm really surprised IRL didn't offer more help.

Where is Gemma!? I feel like she would know - or - at the very least....find out!

Pax,
