Clare~Therese Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Hello! Some of you may remember me. Or not. Lol. I had joined a religious community in August 2014. Almost a year ago now (time flies!), in January 2015, the community and I both decided that that monastery wasn't the right place for me. I couldn't keep up with the intensity of the life in a long term way. I've been lurking a lot but haven't logged in until today. Anyway, I'm still thinking about religious life as an option for now. I've been contacting some communities, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AveMariaPurissima Posted January 8, 2016 Share Posted January 8, 2016 (edited) Welcome back! God bless you as you seek to be faithful to His will, no matter where He leads! If you haven't already, I encourage you to check out Leonie's Longing. They're a ministry that helps women who have left religious life, and as another person who entered a community and discerned I wasn't called there, I have found the support and community there very helpful. http://www.leonieslonging.org/ Edited January 8, 2016 by AveMariaPurissima correcting the link Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
