Every time I see that community mentioned, I think of her. We all were pretty much invested in her journey up and until she finally entered.

Didn't her mom have a quilting site / blog? Karla (Karla discerning vocation) is another. Didn't she enter Carmel in Croatia or Poland? Her sister was Dominican..... And the twins, Phoenix and Cheyenne Sorry about the memories...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pax17 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 If I remember correctly: - The twins discerned out of religious life. One joined the Navy according to their mother's blog. She was the mom with a quilting blog. - Emma Berry was discerning with another community, possibly the Apostles of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. -Karla was clothed at a Carmelite monastery (Croatia ?) and received the name Michaela.

debc Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I just realized she is from or near my neck of the woods. I live in CT and work near Shelton. Nice to see someone from your home state once in a while. Some areas are more "vocation" areas as priest put it but they can come from anywhere. I knew a young doctor who is becoming Dominican priest (but I hope can still work in that area if possible too) he was very gifted. I knew one more young woman who was international but going to school here in CT and she entered a Sacred Heart order teaching. It's less strict in a way than some, they have a schedule of course but you always see them shopping and driving to Home Depot, etc. they can keep FB pages but only post on holiday's or to share pics of their sisters. They have phones but for use in emergency. She is in Italy for a year which is great and got to renew her vows there. I love to see her smile. ; ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
