ACS67 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I would love to know, from those who have commented so far, the orders you are either in right now or discerning with, if you don't mind naming them.

FutureSister2009 Posted March 31, 2012 Share Posted March 31, 2012 I miss my Sisters back at home. That does not essentially mean I am going to join them. But I miss them a lot. I didn't really get a lot of time with them over spring break. I probably won't get to see them again until the semester is over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhuturePriest Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 [quote name='HopefulBride' timestamp='1333029250' post='2410020'] Just being with them I know this sounds a bit corny but I've visited some beautiful communities and with my sisters there is the sense that this community was made just for me. Each and everyone of the sisters has their little quirkiness and their funny ways that I love. Their sense of humor, being able to chat about our struggles as religious (in my case future religious) and knowing that we are real people. Being able to charitably disagree and yet still be able to receive the grace to be obedient to Holy Mother Church through the superior. Praying with them, laughing with them, cooking with them, cleaning with them, even walking in the snow with them (and TT knows I don't do cold) Chasing runaway chickens with them (funny story for another time) It's just the feeling that I'm home ooh how I miss them and want to be home!!! I hope this year is the year Edited cause yours truly can't spell when she's excited. [/quote] Charitably disagree? I've never had a charitable disagreement. I need to enter the Franciscan Brothers Minor as quick as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mysisterisalittlesister Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Recreation just rocks. The older sisters like to play Penuckle, and some of the phrases they have to use are "I'm on my second marriage." The younger ones just run around shouting or play some weird board game like Moods Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the171 Posted April 1, 2012 Share Posted April 1, 2012 Charitable disagreements happen a lot with obedience. Well, not a lot, but they happen. A good bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemma_Kateri Posted April 2, 2012 Share Posted April 2, 2012 My Sisters (TOR Franciscans) are really good at being [i]present[/i] to the moment and to each other. You can tell that they truly value each others company. A few of them do a "book club" together (I love to read!) and one time when I was visiting I joined them. We sat on this little porch they have which is warmed by a wood stove, read some, talked for a while and laughed a lot. After that I was like, I need to be here now.

I don't think they would play Moods, goodness I'm just imagining that... okay I better stop while I'm at it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littlesister Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 The best thing about being with my sisters? - just belonging to this family, and knowing that together we belong to Christ and make a difference in the lives of the poor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
