Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
I think this is a really cool part:
[quote][color=#000000][font=Helvetica, Arial, 'ITC Stone Sans Std Medium', sans-serif][size=3]The Rev. Gregory Eichman, FSSP, who was ordained to the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter in May, proclaimed the Gospel. His order is dedicated to the traditional liturgy of the Roman Catholic Church. Father Eichman, 27, is assistant pastor at St. Anne Church in San Diego. His 19-year-old sister was among the Carmelite novices attending the Mass.[/size][/font][/color][/quote]

How wonderful! God reward you for posting. I've been waiting for news to come out on this; and I was really surprised to see pictures of the novices (I wouldn't be surprised if this was taken down soon.) It was a beautiful article.

"[i]The Mass and following reception offered a rare opportunity to see the sisters. Later that day, they returned to their monastery in the hills of Canyon, which would then be enclosed. The nuns will be behind grilles[/i]...."

I'm so happy for the Sisters; they must have been looking forward to this so that they may continue their life in silence and solitude. Hopefully soon enough they will have a monastery.

Super wonderful to see!! Thanks for sharing! Also, I noticed if you go to the main site, [url="http://www.catholicvoiceoakland.org/"]http://www.catholicvoiceoakland.org/[/url] there's another small picture of one of the Novices (or perhaps First Professed, but the article says Novices)

Same article, but slightly different picture: [url="http://www.catholicnewsagency.com/news/carmelites-welcomed-at-st-monica/"]http://www.catholicn...d-at-st-monica/[/url] I feel a little guilty posting this, as I know they want to remain hidden .. but since it is on a major Catholic news site... so great to get this little glimpse of them!! :heart: (though hoping they'll be taken down soon as I know they would wish)
