Telling a community I want to discern with them

Today was sooo amesome!  The profession Mass was beautiful, and it was beyond wonderful to spend time with the Sisters.  Everything about my time at the monastery today confirmed and strengthened what's been going on in my heart.  I felt like I fit in -- like once I got there, I just slipped in as if I was already one of them.  The joy and peace I feel there are too strong to be ignored.  And it was such a great joy to be able to embrace the call I feel and have to/want to run away from it, hide it, or ignore it.  I really think that I may have a vocation there.  I've told the Sisters and they're all happy, excited, and supportive -- and not at all surprised!  (One of them, when I told her that I think I have a vocation there, she said, "You don't think it...you know it!")  We all agree that we'll take things slowly and let God take the lead with all of it.  We also talked about the possibility of me coming for a few days when I'm on spring break this coming March, so I'm hoping that works out. 

 

God is good.

I'm really happy for you. I can totally relate to what you are saying. I had the same sense when I visited Notting Hill. Praying for you
