truthfinder Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 [quote name='Mary's Margaret' timestamp='1334094556' post='2415508'] They are related: As a further development of the [u][url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charism"]charism[/url][/u], the family of the Heralds of the Gospel gave rise to two [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Society_of_Apostolic_Life"]societies of apostolic life[/url]. Virgo Flos Carmeli the priestly branch of the Heralds was born in 2005 with the ordinations of the first 15 priests, including the founder of the Heralds of the Gospel. Regina Virginum the Feminine Branch was born later on Christmas of the same year. Both societies received papal approval in 2009, becoming a clerical society of apostolic life of pontifical right and a feminine society of apostolic life of pontifical right, respectively.

Five were Discalced Carmelite Friars, two were Dominican Friars (one eventually a bishop) and three Dominican Sisters of St. Catherine de Ricci. The picture shows Bro. Boniface's ...family on the occasion of his brother Louis' ordination to the episcopacy. When they were presented to Pope John XXIII he exclaimed, "ONE MAMMA?!?!" Yes, your Holiness, one mamma."

You know there is a family hot on his trail, I think they are part of TB's order, I saw a short clip on them and it is beautiful to see... I think it's something like 4 of the girls are sisters and 5 of the boys are at diff. stages of the priesthood one being ordained already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 (edited) No, she's the Sister that addressed Pope Benedict at World Youth Day during his session with young religious. Give me a minute and I'll figure out her order. I can't find the thread that talks about it at the moment, but I'll look later.
