laetitia crucis Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Those are AWESOME! I particularly like that the Franciscan "Starter Kit" is called "Franciscan 'Stigmata' Starter Kit" However, I did notice... the Dominicans are MIA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SstrAli Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Poor Dominicans are left out. . . I love the Carmelite one (because I love St. Therese) and the Latin Mass one. . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Perhaps people would be less likely to buy white t-shirts with a black design on it... after all, I think I might own only ONE white t-shirt. And I hardly ever wear it simply because it's white and I'm prone to stains. I love all the buttons that come along with the little "kits" - very spiffy!

aalpha1989 Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 I like the Latin Mass one, too, but they need a St. Simon Stock or St. John of the Cross or something... I mean I love Therese, but I'm not gonna walk around in a pink T-Shirt... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White tshirts are the bomb. . . but yes they would not be good for you if you are prone to stains lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piccoli Fiori JMJ Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Ah, good ol' Monk Rock... They're all about living monastically in the world. They have a lay group called the "TRANSITUS – OBLATES OF THE LAST MARTYRDOM." It's "an integrated association of lay monastics, securing for souls a school of Christian perfection. Transitus exists for Christians seeking to embrace the life of monks in a manner suitable for the laity, thus adapting the Gospel ideal commonly associated with monasticism to their life in the world--going from Gospel to life, and life to the Gospel." Their spirituality seems to be a mix of Franciscan, Carmelite, and Benedictine (I think...), so that would explain the lack of Dominican representation here, however they have the 9 ways of prayer of St. Dominic...

CatherineM Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 My only problem is if this stuff becomes cool or fashionable, it might lose its meaning. Kind of like gangbangers with rosary tattoos on their necks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I'm a girl and I like pink every now and then (especially with BROWN!).. but I think it'd be awesome to have a St. John of the Cross shirt. Perhaps quoting "Dark Night" or "Living Flame of Love". I'd want one. [quote name='FutureNunJMJ' date='05 May 2010 - 05:06 PM' timestamp='1273089975' post='2105502'] Ah, good ol' Monk Rock...

vee Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 (edited) I want the confirmation / Pentacost one and the Latin Mass one! The Carmelite one needs some work I agree. A Dominican one would be awesome too and I want a Jesuit one as well Edited May 5, 2010 by vee8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of like gangbangers with rosary tattoos on their necks. [/quote] Or the bracelets with small images of Saints, the Blessed Mother & Jesus ... I saw those on sale EVERYWHERE when I was in the downtown Atlanta vintage/thrift stores. Then when I came home I saw this girl who had a Rosary bracelet on and told me she had to cut off the Cross because she was mormon Well ... God has a reason for everything. Many conversions have happened when people wear something Catholic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
