LaPetiteSoeur Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 [quote name='FutureSister2009' timestamp='1317853253' post='2315800'] And since there has been nothing else new in here I may as well add what I just found out today. My grandmom has been sending me the bulletins from my Church every week and on the cover it has all the staff members names. Turns out there is another new Sister in the Convent in addition to the three we have and the Aspirant! From the looks of the abbreviation next to her name, I don't think she's a part of the Order I am discerning with. I don't know what community she's from. I guess I have to wait and see. She goes to visit the sick of the Parish and her name is Sr. Philomena. I can't wait to meet her! [/quote] What was the abbreviation, if you don't mind me asking?

beatitude Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 I have no spiritual director. Never have had. I think I might need one now, so I'm considering whom to ask. Please pray for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FutureSister2009 Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 (edited) I am not in Port Similac that's for sure. I don't even know where that is! Sr. Philomena's abbreviation is FDNSC. I have no idea what community that is but I'm going to try to look it up Edited October 6, 2011 by FutureSister2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary's Margaret Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I believe they're the Daughters of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart. When I looked up their website (sorry I don't know how to post either the pictures or the web address) the Sisters in the US seemed only to have no habit or a very modified one.

Mary's Margaret Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 Just for clarification: from what I found on-line, the Daughters of the Sacred Heart are DSH and the Daughters of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart are FDNSC [url="http://www.thecatholictreasurechest.com/order"]www.thecatholictreasurechest.com/order[/url] is a great site for deciphering these 'codes' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mary's Margaret Posted October 6, 2011 Share Posted October 6, 2011 I'm so sorry. I can't seem to get back to it at the moment. Another site with an extensive list of acronyms is Catholic Doors Ministry. If you scroll down a little on the left side under Abbreviations, click on Religious Orders and you'll find over 800 of them! Handy to keep in 'favourites'. Again, sorry I'm so computer challenged (you'd never know I used to program them...umm...40 years ago!) Anyway, hope the list proves useful.
