vee Posted March 3, 2016 Author Share Posted March 3, 2016 Im going for supper tonight with an aunt that I see every once in a while. Part of me has to laugh because the next time we see each other after tonight I may have some very surprising news for her. She was raised Catholic but stopped going to church and jsut recently told me why. She was in need of help years ago and a priest and a Sister were very cold and unhelpful to her while a Protestant neighbor was not. That's the short version of the story and hearing it reminded me that if I go to the convent Im going to be the best dang nun I can be!!! Far too many people have stories like my aunt's, or worse, and it is really a disgrace! I want people to be able to say "not her, she's a good one!"

In the next handful of weeks I should be in a position where they can actually vote on me. Coincidentally I realized I have enough frequent flier miles to go visit the bff AND, there is a retreat going on that we will be able to attend during my visit too! Hopefully by the time I visit her I will have an answer either way because the trip is planned for a couple months from now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you can push Vee through the turn of a Dominican convent. and Id like to ask anyone reading this for a quick prayer for my family, in particular for me, my sister, and one of my brothers. its nothing to do with any sort of possible vocation but rather things we are currently dealing with. Im the one helping my bro out as he goes through some things and my sister is worried about the health of one of her kids, so pray for my nephew too! Please and thank you!

vee Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 Still waiting! In the meantime Ive decided to do some spring cleaning and was going through old emails. I found my first conversations with the community im interested in and its funny how they are almost meant for me to read now after all this time. For example she repeatedly tells me to have courage this being one example Im putting here for my own reminder. " Dear vee, May God grant you the beautiful vocation of someday being His spouse. ... Please keep praying for your vocation and then let nothing change your mind. Courage." Considering all Ive been through between then and now that was really something to read Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
