Oh geez...hmm. This could be too easy.. :think:
Well this specific order was founded in 1771 in Italy. The first American convent was established in 1910. They are cloistered contemplatives...

Here ya go:

Founded in the United States, these Sisters work to combine apostolate with Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament. Their ministries include teaching and healthcare.

LOL, I actually completely forgot you were discerning with them until now. :blush:


Here is the next hint:

Formed in Canada in 1977, this religious order mainly does work in schools and parishes teaching catechesis.

ooh, tough one. Insider information:

This congregation, founded in 1860, doesn't wear wedding rings because they melted them down to help the poor, I think during the Civil War.

oops, sorry if it wasn't my turn.
