Kayte Postle Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 [quote name='Antigonos' timestamp='1353749864' post='2515880'] Any particular reason some wear veils which are apparently purple, and some [or at least one] wear a black veil? Just curious. [/quote] The purple hood is part of their work habits. They do a lot of manual labor on their land and sometimes the veil gets in the way, so they have a work habit that is the scapular with a hood attached.

Chiquitunga Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Saw them once at St. John Cantius!!! (in Chicago) I believe it was Mother Margaret Mary and Sr. Agnes Immaculae (<-- LOVE that name!! both of those names for that matter! ) She had a white veil then ... this was, February 2012. They look very beautiful indeed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleWaySoul Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Their habits are some of my favorites of all religious orders I also know someone who's going to join them pretty soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catholicterp7 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I love this community! I'm hoping to start more seriously discerning with them. I think I'll be able to visit sometime in the next few weeks! JMJ+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToJesusMyHeart Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 Just for future reference, which airport would someone likely fly into if coming to visit them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I would think you would want to fly into Columbus. I'm not sure though, because when I do go I'll be driving with some friends. I know that they do quite a bit of work in Columbus and they're not that far from the city so it wouldn't be hard for them to pick someone up.

Kayte Postle Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Got to have adoration and evening prayer with these sisters tonight, and got to talk to Mother. They just had another postulant enter, and they have two more that will be entering by summers end. That's five postulants total for this summer! Mother said that they are out of beds (a good problem to have)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nikita92 Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 I had no problem with viewing it from the link provided. Also, I noticed that the one postulant Sr. Marianne appears to be a "Mature" woman. I wonder what their age cutoff is??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayte Postle Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) There is no set age limit, "we discern with each individual if the Lord them here or not". Also, Sr. Marianne is now Sr Bernadette Marie, she made first vows just this March! =) (The sisters don't update the photos on their website all that often).

abrideofChrist Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 How close is this community to becoming a religious institute? They are listed under "lay movements" in the Diocese of Columbus website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
