mcts Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 This weekend I'm going on a vocation retreat at the convent that alrichey and JTeresa are at. Anyone have anything for me to tell them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 I just spent an hour with 3 of their sisters (Sr. Maria Gemma, Sr. Beneticta, and Sr. Petra) tonight! They are a super amazing community! Definitely need to know: Praised Be Jesus Christ. Now and Forever, Amen. and O Sacrament Most Holy, O Sacrament Divine. All praise and all thanksgiving, be every moment thine. I *might* be able to answer any questions you have. Let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cherie Posted March 23, 2011 Share Posted March 23, 2011 Please let them know they are in our thoughts and prayers, and may God grant them them abundant graces, especially that of perseverance. And prayers for you, too, on your retreat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcts Posted March 31, 2011 Author Share Posted March 31, 2011 While I absolutely LOVE the community, I'm not really discerning with them, mostly because I have ADD and would not fit well with their community, but also because I'm fairly certain now that I'm being called to married life.
