Do you have to bring money with you when you enter (i.e. a dowry)? How much is it if so?

I'm very happy that you will be able to enter as a candidate in less than 2 weeks! You must be so excited!

Awesome! That order is on my consideration list.

Mel, of their three apostolates, which do you feel called to? Do you get to choose the apostolate? Do you know what their talks/conferences/retreats are like in their retreat apostolate, like the depth, schedule, etc.?

I honestly am open to anything, although, I do have a great love in education, such as teaching or youth ministry. No, you don't choose your own apostolate, although, your past experiences and where your heart is at is taken greatly into account.

Going on a retreat at the Sacred Heart Retreat Center is a beautiful experience. Its quiet, most retreats are silent, and I felt there was enough time to pray, socialize, pray more Its a great time! I recommend it!
