The Trappist Nuns at Santa Rita in Arizona have recently started a Facebook, largely in an effort to attract vocations. So I thought I'd post it here. And then I thought, "Why not post a bunch of them?" You guys can add to my started batch. 

Trappist nuns, Sonoita, AZ: https://www.facebook.com/Santa-Rita-Abbey-1401882016504354/  The posts aren't daily, but they're frequent. 

Pink Sisters, St.Louis MO: https://www.facebook.com/mountgraceconvent/?fref=ts Only occasional posts - every few months. But their recent posts are cute - three posts featuring them and originally posted by Bishop Stika of Knoxville and shared on their site. 

Passionist nuns, Ellisville, MO: https://www.facebook.com/Passionistsofellisville/?fref=ts   A few posts a month, depending on what's going on. 

Dominican nuns, Ortonville, MI: https://www.facebook.com/mtthabor.dominicannuns/?fref=ts    New posts once or twice a week or so

Dominican nuns, Menlo Park, CA: https://www.facebook.com/Dominican.Nuns.Menlo/?fref=ts    New posts four or five times a week. 

Dominican nuns, Hollywood, CA: https://www.facebook.com/MonasteryOfTheAngels/?fref=ts    A new post pretty much daily

DOMINICAN FRIARS (US):

Province of St. Joseph (Eastern US) - https://www.facebook.com/dominicanfriars/?fref=ts     This page is QUITE active.

Province of St. Albert the Great (Midwest US) - https://www.facebook.com/DominicanCentralProvince/?fref=ts A couple of posts per week. They have a feature called "Know Before You Go" - a video in which one of the friars (a different one every week) talks about the upcoming Sunday readings, so you can prep for Mass a little.

Province of St. Albert the Great - Vocations Page - https://www.facebook.com/domcentral.vocations/?fref=ts  The friars in formation post some fun stuff here, when they have a chance, as well as more serious discernment stuff, and their progress through formation.

Province of St. Martin DePorres (Southern US) - https://www.facebook.com/dominican.deporres/?fref=ts Usually pretty active, but they must all be on retreat or something lately. They often feature reflections on the readings of the day, sometimes by friars, sometimes by sisters. They also have some movie reviews.

Province of the Holy Names (Western US) - Vocations Page - https://www.facebook.com/opwestvocations/?fref=ts   The Western province has been thriving with vocations in the last six or seven years, so this is a pretty active page.

Province of the Holy Names - Novitiate Page - https://www.facebook.com/OPWestNovitiate/?fref=ts   What's up with the friars in their first year of formation. I don't find a page for the Province itself.
