AveMariaPurissima Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 I just emailed the Sisters to ask for some clarification about the various fabric items on the list. Please pray that they respond ASAP because...[size=2]this might sound slightly trivial[/size]...I have some 50% off coupons for Joann's that are good for this week, so I'd like to use them to buy my fabric!

TheresaThoma Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 Having Joann's coupons and wanting to use them for the fabric (especially in those amounts!!) is not trivial, its sensible! Fun fact about Joann's coupons if you find other ones like certain amount off of your total purchase you can use those too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmaberry Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Wow! This community is so razzle dazzle!! I have totally internet stalked them and, like everyone else, I LOVE their habits and veils. Gorgeous! When's your date of entry again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Hey Ave! Did you know that, since you are homeschooled, your mom could also get an educators discount? (Our Joann's does that, anyway.) It's certainly something to ask about!

AveMariaPurissima Posted May 29, 2012 Author Share Posted May 29, 2012 I just heard back from the Sisters and they said not to worry about bringing the fabric! That makes my life a lot easier because I was at Joann's the other day and couldn't find anything of what I needed! I will respond more thoroughly to everyone's posts later. Right now I have to go and practice for my piano lesson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might visit them! You are so lucky to be entering into this order [/quote] I feel really blessed to be entering this community (God willing, of course!) I don't know that they do "official" retreats very often, at least not in Michigan. If you want to visit them, though (which I HIGHLY recommend!!!!!)--- just get in touch with them and ask when you could come visit. I don't know where you live, so I don't know which monastery is most convenient for you. If you need contact info I would be glad to post it. And if you (or anyone else) have any questions, don't hesitate to ask! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AveMariaPurissima Posted June 23, 2012 Author Share Posted June 23, 2012 77 days! I just got my passport in the mail today! BTW, my graduation party is tomorrow, so I suspect that that means I'll have to answer lots of vocation-related questions from my relatives, so please pray that that (and the party in general) goes well.

Queen'sDaughter Posted June 24, 2012 Share Posted June 24, 2012 Prayers for you! Went through that twice today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AveMariaPurissima Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 ^Thanks for the prayers. The party went so much better than I imagined. (Very surprisingly, no one asked me anything vocation-related at all. Most of them already knew about my intentions, but I was expecting to be bombarded with further questions!) A few weeks ago I emailed my Sisters to ask where I would be entering, but they still haven't replied. So I emailed them again today. Here's hoping... Oh, and 71 days!

emmaberry Posted June 29, 2012 Share Posted June 29, 2012 Congrats on graduation Ave! Just a little over 2 months now-kyou must be SO excited. Please let us know where you will be entering. I have said it before and I'll say it again: you are entering such a beautiful community/order (I am not sure which term is more appropriate for the Trinitarians of Mary!)
