OnlySunshine Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 [quote name='Catherine Therese' timestamp='1297332752' post='2210915'] I'm Bek and I'm an aspirant with the Order of Preachers [img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/nunpray.gif[/img] and I think this emoticon is cool!! The pay may not be great but I'm told the superannuation is out of this world. I also like this one:[img]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/public/style_emoticons/default/priest.gif[/img] Gentlemen... THIS MEANS YOU... can YOU handle the pressure of a white collar job? [/quote] This is off topic, but when I was discerning religious life, I wanted Sr. Catherine Therese to be my name, AND I was discerning with the Order of Preachers as well! Too weird!

TeresaBenedicta Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I'm TeresaBenedicta (TB for short ) and... well, as my spiritual director commented in our last meeting, I'm not really discerning. I've been accepted into an Order and plan to enter as soon as circumstances allow to try out my religious vocation within that family. Things obviously aren't final until, well, final vows, but until God shows me something different (in a very clear way), I know the direction I'm heading and have moral certitude that it is His will for me.
