ForHimAlone Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 For those discerning a call to the religious life, what orders and/or communities are you looking into? I think it would be awesome to see the order/community that you feel might be where God is drawing you to! Mine: Carmelite Order [url="http://www.heartsawake.com"]http://www.heartsawake.com[/url] Dominican Nuns of Perpetual Rosary [url="http://www.op.org/nunsopsummit/"]http://www.op.org/nunsopsummit/[/url] Cistercian Nuns [url="http://www.nunocist.org/"]http://www.nunocist.org/[/url] Dominican Sisters of Saint Cecilia [url="http://www.nashvilledominican.org/Main.htm"]http://www.nashvilledominican.org/Main.htm[/url] May God bless you all on your vocation journeys!

ForHimAlone Posted December 2, 2004 Author Share Posted December 2, 2004 jgirl, I've had quite a bit of contact with the Franciscan Sisters of the Martyr Saint George. They hold monthly retreats at their convent in our diocese. It's such a wonderful order!! If you ever want contact information with the sisters in the La Crosse, WI diocese, let me know, and I can give you their info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was talking with mom and she thinks my descion should be based on how close the convent is to home That's why I was leaning toward Kentuky... Thanks for the "tip" though!
