OnlySunshine Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 (edited) Since the Sisters' visitation ended last week, I thought I'd start a fresh topic. I just started the novena to St. Therese of Lisieux last night as planned, asking for her blessings and intercession. The Provincial Superior will be returning to the United States next week, so who better to pray a novena to than my trusty friend, Therese? As this week continues, please pray that I will hear from the Superior as soon as she returns (or sooner!). I'm leaving Sunday, October 7th, for California and I don't want to miss her call. She has a bad habit (no pun intended!) of losing my information, so I may call her back next week. I haven't spoken to her since August 17th. ETA: I hate to keep repeating this but I am keeping the order private until the news of my acceptance is official. Thanks for your understanding and prayers!

OnlySunshine Posted September 26, 2012 Author Share Posted September 26, 2012 (edited) [font=georgia,serif][i]Seems like God has been immersing me in His loving embrace the last few days. I have been in a really great mood because I have confidence that this will happen -- I just have to have faith! I've never felt so peaceful about a community until now. Even when I was discerning and hopeful that I would find my home with the Carmelites or the CFRs, the peace was never instilled in my heart. I pray that this will come to pass and I will hear news of my acceptance and impending entrance very soon. I keep playing my favorite love song to Jesus that was my witness song during CRHP back in March this year.

OnlySunshine Posted September 28, 2012 Author Share Posted September 28, 2012 [font=georgia,serif][i]I've continued to pray the 9-day novena asking for St. Therese's intercession and haven't missed a day yet. It's hard not to get discouraged when you don't hear anything for a long time, but I keep hanging on to the hope that I will hear soon. Please continue to pray! Thanks!
