MarisStella Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 [quote name='Ad Majorem Dei Gloriam' timestamp='1297152529' post='2210025'] This is what I thought when I read the title. [img]http://media.nola.com/superbowl_impact/photo/new-orleans-saints-vs-minnesota-vikings-cc46a64730e6d48d_medium.jpg[/img] Yes, that is a nun at the Saints game. There are spots reserved for them and for the Archbishop during the games. That's a Nashville Dominican!! I've met her; she is so funny! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeresaBenedicta Posted February 9, 2011 Share Posted February 9, 2011 (edited) St. Augustine & St. Paul & St. Teresa Benedicta of the Cross, all of whom I've connected closely with in my conversion. St. Thomas Aquinas has been a huge partner in seeking Wisdom. He's the tool of inspiration that has given me my "theme" in converting souls, if you will. St. John the Evangelist has always been my favorite character in the Gospels and has been very much a "friend" to me. During an excruciatingly lonely time of my life, my chaplain shared with me a story about his first few years as a priest, and how St. James 'adopted' him, as it were. He encouraged me to ask for a saint-friend to keep me company. And St. John answered. He's also my patron for this year. St. Teresa of Avila & Bl. Elizabeth of the Trinity have both been very instrumental in developing and teaching me how to pray. Although I wouldn't identify myself singularly as 'Carmelite' in spirituality, these two have been the biggest players in that sense.
