SSVMs singing goodnight to Our Lady. After dinner/recreation, the sisters sing a song to the Blessed Mother before silence begins. Then the last of the dishes are done, night prayer is said individually, and everyone retires for the night. In the morning, the day begins with an immediate invocation to Our Lady, as each sister kneels and prays three Hail Mary’s when the bell rings.

I just contacted this Order actually. I like them a lot and I'd like to keep them on the table as an option.

I miss them [i]so[/i] much!! :cry2:

I guess it's only been three months since I last saw them. But during my senior year, I saw them about once a month at the least.

I just want to go [i]now[/i]!! :cry2:

So this amesome video captures [i]perfectly[/i] the essence of the SSVMs!! It features: the night before investiture (singing & fun), the investiture ceremony, the party, and what convent life is life thereafter. :D

lovely! question: what are the flower-like things in the future novice's braids?

They are [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisteria"]wisteria[/url], which the Founder once used as analogy to the sisters because of "their great number with which the Lord has blessed them; because they are always traveling together in a group; and because they seem to be fragile, yet they have an enormous resistance." :)
