The book is entitled [i]What is a girl like you doing in a place like this?

Feankie Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 That's Sr. John-Mark, a PCPA in the foundation in Phoenix, Our Lady of Solitude. I know the nuns out there (I helped them with items they needed when they left Hanceville) and I spoke to Sr. John-Mark last eyar regarding the annual Nun Run. She's a real sweetie. They monastery also has 2 Westies. If I'm thinking correctly, she is probably about ready to make 1st profession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feankie Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 That picture was taken at the Blessing of the Animals. Apparently you could bring any pet that was caged, leashed, in a covered aquarium, etc. Just so it couldn't get loose! My beagle, Lily, and I couldn't be there, so I asked the Sisters if she could be blessed in absentia. Nothing like trying to break the rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgnatiusofLoyola Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 (edited) I like the look of habits with the headpiece. There is something about that headpiece that makes the wearer seem not only holy but intelligent and credible. (Forgve me--I'm so ignorant I don't know what it is called.) That may not be so strange, as for example, in many cultures a high forehead is considered a sign of intelligence. I especially like the habit of the Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Church--I consider it one of the most beautiful habits EVER. [img]http://www.sistersofmarymotherofthechurch.org/zlcms/editor/uploads/images/Living%20as%20Community%20small_1.jpg[/img] But, the headpiece looks uncomfortable--as if it would leave marks and would feel too tight. Is this the case? I think if I were to join a communtity that wore a more traditional veil, I'd prefer one of light, soft materials. Often these are not as pretty or flattering--but then, whether a veil is flattering is not supposed to matter.
