TheresaThoma Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I think being nervous is very normal. One sister told me that if you aren't nervous at some point than there is something wrong! I'm a convert and I remember a few days before the Easter Vigil I became very nervous and almost wanted to not go through with it that year. I knew how big of a deal getting baptized and coming into the Church was and I didn't feel prepared (the not being prepared part was untrue, my formators did an excellent job!). I trusted my friends and RCIA director and their opinions so I managed to push through those fears. God Bless you on the next stage of your journey.

MarysLittleFlower Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 It left only 11 days before my entrance.I'm very piece full in my heart but also little bit scared about what is coming.My vocation director and priest and sisters they all assure me that is very normal to be nervous.It help me a lot that i have talk with my sisters.She have similar feels last year when she enter her order.Few days before her entrance she has been so nervous that in one point she wanted to postpone it for some other time.But she pass this time period and now she is happy!Still praying help me a lot.I fell my self then safe and after it confided that my path is right.I have take care most of the stuff i wanted but sure every day i remember just one more think to do.Last weekend i have done little barbecue in our yard for my collage friends.With some of them i'm close and with some who live far from here not so much.Still it is nice to see that more then 20 friends came.It has been amazing afternoon to spend with them and to share our common memories from collage days.It is nice to found out that one of the friends from collage is entering seminary this fall and few more are considering different vocations.Time is passing so quick.Next week i will pack one box with some personal stuff and some books that is all what i'm bringing to monastery. I'm here on forum for few more days but you all are in my prayers all the time.God bless you all!

Carla Posted June 17, 2015 Author Share Posted June 17, 2015 That's all folks for a longer time.This will be my last post on Phatmass for a longer period of time probably.As you already know i entering clositerd community and during my formation i do not have access to internet.Formation of young postulant who is asking to become part of community one day is very sensitive and internet in that way can be very big distraction in this time period.If i stay with community and take by first vows it is possibility that i can write again on forum.But for now it is long future for me and if i become part of the community writing here will not depends only by decision do to it. My older sister will have access to my profile here and my email.She will not post here put if you want to know something or ask address ,some information be free to contact her.Also she will handle my email (carla412@outlook.com).In last few weeks you send me a lot of beautiful emails with words of support.That mean a lot for me.This emails and this words and i will carry them with me all my life.Some of you ask from me some information in future and that we stay in touch.So i just posting it here that you all know for now it will not be possible but if you have desire my sister will happy to replay you. Just wanted to say this has been beautiful journey.Like all good thinks in life with many ups and downs.Few years ago i have desire to become Franciscan sister but this has been my desire not my Vocation.But than God has been patient with me and i have found my Vocation.In this period i have a lot of questioning my self can i really do it? Can i really left my family and friends.?After long discerning i have realize that yes,i leaving dear people behind but i will gain much more. I will have chance to give my self totally to Him.To give Him my soul and my heart and to serve him in praying for others.To spend life in His grace is much more then any things i need to left behind me. This few days still at home i do not want to spend near TV or Internet.I will like to spend it with my family and my close peoples.I will spend it in praying and adoration.I'm waiting this Sunday with great excitement .After Mass service i will enter new chapter in my life. Be sure you will be in my heart and in my prayers there. Carla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
