Add another order to the list now: I've been in very close contact with the Carmelites in Alhambra, CA for the past year, but this November I'm going on a come-and-see with the SMME in Ann Arbor--the same order so many people here know and love A friend of mine is actually a new postuland there, too, so I'll get to see her again! Yay

Say how did you get that cool Avatar. I have the comic!! My only regret is that I didn't get the comic for Mother Teresa when it first came out. Now I can't find it but I have the comic for St. Francis.

was that seriously off topic? I usually think of "off topic" as something like this:

the star trek trivia game rocks, come check it: [url="http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/index.php?showtopic=57612&hl="]http://www.phatmass.com/phorum/index.php?s...c=57612&hl=[/url]

though I'm not as off topic as you are, the question should be how did [i]you[/i] get that cool comic!? i found the avatar under images of JP2 online. i love comic illustrations, so this avatar was perfect

Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist. I got their vocation packet and e-mailed SJAB, It pretty aquard though, because every time I write I run throu who I am again, because I dont know if she remembers who I am : ! And I am going to their retreat in May, my 16th birthday is in May and my parents said they'd buy my airplane ticket as my gift.

I looked into the Sisters of Life, and although they totally rock , I dont think I am called to that kind of work. I also have looked at, but haven't contacted the Nashville Dominicans, because there I could teach higher education, which would be nice.

The only real problem is I live in New Hampshire, so all of these places are kinda far away, and there really aren't any traditional Dominican orders around me, the only nuns I've ever really known are the two that worked in my old school, neither wore habits and they lived by themselves ( the old covent by the school is now CCD classes and offices ), so there aren't many other sisters I could even talk to

On the bright side, my family might take a trip to Tenn. when my uncle comes back home (he's in jail, please pray for him, he's my godfather) so I might have a chance to see the Dominicans there!!! I hope!!!

Actually there are a few other Dominicans who are members of CMSWR a bit closer to you. (NJ and MA)
Don't know too much about them, though, as they only have a brief page on the CMSWR website. Good luck and God bless

oops! I forgot I also visited the PCPA's in Canton,Ohio too....yeesh...Does anyone see a pattern here? But now I believe St. Dominic wants me for his daughter!
