she_who_is_not Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 The sisters listed as Sisters of St. Francis of the Martyr St. George are actually Sisters of the 3rd Order of St. Francis, Peoria. I think the Alton Franciscans had at least one profession this year. I'll check and repost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have included the Sisters of the Third Order of St. Francis Peoria IL in my One Profession list. http://franciscansisterspeoria.wordpress.com/ My apologies. I will correct my list. I looked long and hard for finals under the Alton Franciscans (Srs. of St. Francis of the Martyr St. George)--but couldn't find any for 2010. I am completely at the mercy of the web, as I don't know anyone I can go to for information in any of these or any other orders.

krissylou Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 There was one on Saturday with the Benedictine Sisters of Ferdinand, Indiana (Monastery Immaculate Conception). http://thedome.smugmug.com/MonEvents/Jeana-prof/14018113_xQ3RE#1031318447_tzjjf Speaking precisely, the Benedictines would refer to this as a PERPETUAL profession, reserving the term "final" profession for death.

I overlooked the publication. I have earmarked it for the future. I have listed the OSB Ferdinand IN final profession in an earlier Recap. I use 'final' instead of 'perpetual' as it's shorter! I find it extraordinarily difficult to keep up with and especially to FIND formation events. They are often buried in news (under the obits in one case), publications--often page 20-odd in a long newsletter, which takes minutes to download; or in one of several publications which one must sift through in order to find the publication in which formation events are listed; or in the photo galleries. In addition, as new items are added, old items are dropped. Why the webmasters don't list the events under "news" on the front page of a website--I have no idea. Many of course do, but many don't. And some of the most actively growing institutes either don't have websites, don't update them, or don't include formation events--including CFR, SSVM, and the Alma Mercies. I mention only the apostolic institutes, of course. Same situation for the cloistered/contemplative orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a slideshow of "2010 Profession Ceremonies," with what appears to be one final profession and one renewal of vows. Then click on each Stage of Formation, and there are more pictures of Sisters at each stage. It looks like 6 postulants entered this year, and that there are something between 10-14 novices. (There were two different pictures of novices--and the number of white veils in each was different. I confess, I didn't study the pictures carefully to try to figure out the reason for the discrepancy--if there is any at all. Both pictures seem to include other people besides novices, so I could have miscounted. Or one picture could be all novices--both first and second year, and the other with only one year.) I didn't see any clothing ceremonies on the Web site, but I also didn't study the Web site in any depth. Here is the link to the Formation section of the Web site of the Religious Sisters of Alma, MI.

TheresaThoma Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 It looks like the Dominican Sisters of St Cecila had 11 final professions this year (in July). I'll see what I can dig up on the other communities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
