The same is true for the Sisters of St Francis of the Martyr St. George. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piccoli Fiori JMJ Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 I was in that boat myself, and I am going to keep it long so that it can be another thing I can give to Christ. Also long hair is symbolic of youth and being "unwed" so to say... I haven't cut my hair in a long time, nor have I colored it... I haven't done anything at all really with it...

zunshynn Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Sister Mary Gabriel was adamant that I not cut my hair prior to investiture, because Mother Angelica gets a kick out of cutting hair at investitures. From what I hear she cackles, because she likes it so much. lol. I can just picture that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

puellapaschalis Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Sounds a bit scary, actually. If you didn't know any better, how would [i]you[/i] interpret the image of an old nun cackling at cutting a young woman's hair off? I'm getting a Rapunzel-flashback here... : Love and prayers, PP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memory-singer Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 Ah hair..... Enjoy the it while you have it : (Let Mother Angelica enjoy cutting it off.) Mine is almost to my waist. My hope is to donate it to "Locks of Love" after i enter the novitiate. (My mother has brought up the hair question several times and I assured her, I can be a postulant with my hair pinned up.)

awyers Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 I am trying to grow mine out too so I can donate it I think I read they need at least 10" which is going to be a a stretch seeing as I decided to chop my hair off for the first time ever a few months ago lol. I can totally see Mother Angelica getting a kick out of cutting it off, she is hysterical! I wonder if they continue to cut it short through the years???? I hope Mother Angelica is still well enough to participate if I join the PCPA's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

be_thou_my_vision Posted July 14, 2006 Share Posted July 14, 2006 I think you should wait until you get your acceptance letter if God is calling you there... cut it in celebration! God Bless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zunshynn Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 That was Sr. Ashley.... now she's Sr. Maria Magdalena of the Merciful Redeemer. She's fulfilling her canonical year in the cloister right now. And she has a blood sister in the cloister named Sr. Marie Ste. Anne. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
