Orders that make ya giddy...

The Daughters of St. Paul make me giddy....

I SOOO want to meet them.

It's kinda funny... because last year I'd been looking for orders devoted to communications.... and then my pastor asked me to represent the teens on our parish planning team, and we used a program called Envision by the Paulist Fathers. ANd I thought it was so cool, but I was sad because it only had priests... and then I looked up the Paulistines and I was sad because when I didn't find any I figured there weren't any for women... But then I found the Paulines (duh, Jen) by a stroke of divine providence... I love how God does that...

you are aware that there are 2 or 3 blogs written by St.Paul sisters don't you? If you don't, please let me know and I will send websites to you! And good luck in your search. I once went to one of their bookstores in Philly, and it was a peacefilled oasis.

Ooooh.... I just found them! So cool! Thanks so much!

I think they have a bookstore in San Francisco... I hope to go there soon.


Zabbazooey.... Carmelites rock like St. Peter!

the mendicant friars: Franciscans, Dominicans, and Carmelites have made me giddy. However, it was really the Augustinian Frairs that i decided on. There was giddiness, but not more. And there still is giddiness.

Orders that make my "giddy"

Marians of the Immaculate Conception
Cannon Regulars of Pre Montre
Legion of Christ (at times)

However God calls me in the service of his people as a diocesean priest, but rest assure I will have a deep friendship with those orders.

[TheOliverOrder88]

All orders make me "giddy" in some fashion.

I began to think of some and they have all gotten me "giddy" at some time or another.

Absolute Devotion in any form, in any particular way makes me "giddy".

[Piccoli Fiori JMJ]

Nuns in general have me all giddy : Nuns in the habit especially

Actually they just closed the San Francisco bookstore, they are going to reopen in Redwood City sometime the beginning of 2006. (I think the cost of earthquake retrofitting of the building they had just got too expensive.)

I didn't think that way about their vocations director. She was really nice when I talked about her and she helped me figure out how God is working in my life.

I seriously discerned with them not last summer but the summer before. They have a bookstore in New York City that I used to go to all the time and I got to know those sisters quite well. They were full of such joy! I also love the Franciscan Sisters of the Renewal, the Sisters of Life and the Summit Dominicans
