Someone did find issues with the order, but I won't go into who and what. Teresa spoke with that girl and knows about the issues. She may be the person to talk to, for those serious about the order. I believe people should be fully aware of good and bad about orders.

I've emailed two Sisters in this Order and have not gotten anything back. :sad: Although I do have other Orders in mind, I would like to visit with these Sisters too.

EDIT:

Correction One of them did just email me back! :clapping:

It's likely that they were gone all of last week for "Pasqueta". :-) They can get extremely busy but they do their best to get back to people ASAP.

They are very busy and often are away from the computer so surely you were not ignored. Glad to see you got a response. Praying for you!

Agreed ... I have some reservations about the order, *but* having said that I honestly think that the right person will be the perfect fit :). I have gone to IVE retreats and shared with the novices, and they are a wonderful group of women.

No order is perfect -- and as JoyfulLife said it is better to know the good and the bad. Then you can make a more informed decision.

I know this might seem like a random question, but do you know if they have their own rooms/cells? I was reading on another forum that do not.

Also, I know they pray morning, evening, and night prayer in community but do you know if they pray Office of Readings or Mid-day prayer privately?

I will be going on a come-and-see in a few weeks. If you have any advice, it would be most welcome. Although I am not new to discerning religious life, I am fairly new to looking at specific orders...

The question is not random at all! I saw a very similar post under the topic, "For Those Discerning..." and added my thoughts there a few minutes ago. Please see that.

Peace of Christ!
