Spem in alium Posted March 18, 2016 Author Share Posted March 18, 2016 (edited) 2.5 hours to go. I feel really nervously excited! Definitely getting the pre-wedding jitters now -- though they feel good At Mass, Father kindly prayed for me. It's been amazing to have had so much support and prayer. Thank you, pham.

veritasluxmea Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Goodbye Spem! I will say a prayer that whomever the Lord calls you to be and whatever He calls you to do, He brings to fulfillment.

Spem in alium Posted March 19, 2016 Author Share Posted March 19, 2016 I am now Sr Spem. Thank you, all, for your prayers. It was a beautiful ceremony full of love and joy, and I felt I was placing myself completely in the hands of Jesus, my Sisters and my foundress. Thank you.

Sister Leticia Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Congratulations! I remember looking at your congregation's website a while back and seeing photos of all their postulants, so in time you'll be up there with them! Meanwhile, I hope this new stage of your journey with and to God will be filled with life, growth and a stronger sense of who and what you are being called to be.

Sisters did a great job with taking pictures on the day, particularly my formation director: she wanted photo after photo! I am praying for you too. 5 hours ago, Comingback said: Congratulations! You will be in my prayers. Thank you! You're in my prayers too! My first full day as a postulant was very peaceful. My superior asked me if I would write something about the ceremony which she could send to our general administration. When she read it, she said, "Don't forget to sign it as "Sr Spem". I was thinking, wow! Yes, I'm now Sr Spem! It's just amazing to think that I now belong to this congregation, that I am a member. I feel so unworthy of that, and at the same time so incredibly blessed to be here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spem in alium Posted March 23, 2016 Author Share Posted March 23, 2016 Thank you so much, Jennifer! You are in mine also. This won't be my first Easter Triduum in the convent, but it will be my first truly in community. This week has been so amazing. God's grace, His peace, and His blessings are just overflowing. He truly does free the captive heart and soul! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
