jgirl Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 It's a good place to be while discerning! We have so many cool orders here, and it's a very Catholic place. It sounds weird, but the thing I am going to miss the most when I enter religious life isn't going to be something material or even really my family. I will miss St. Louis the most!

OLAM Dad Posted February 3, 2006 Share Posted February 3, 2006 I was just joking. I didn't mean to upset anybody. St. Louis is a baseball town, high praise indeed in my book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I got to meet Sr. Joseph Andrew, SMME today. She is absolutely fabulous and I can't say enough good things about her! Hopefully I can visit her community at the end of the month (God willing!). As Sister says, "God sure does spoil me!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cool thing is that in Alabama there is one Sister there who is also from Missouri. She's a Cardinals fan, too! When I was visiting in September, we were pulling weeds together and reminiscing about our Busch Stadium memories. We have one of the coolest bishops, two (not just one, but two) basilicas, a great seminary filled with guys from the Midwest and MidSouth who will be amazing, holy priests if God wills them to be ordained, a plethora of religious orders and all kinds of other cool Catholic stuff! But then we also have toasted ravioli, baseball, Ted Drewes, the world's largest Amoco sign, four seasons in one week, and a Walk of Fame. And Magnificat, I'm very excited for you. From all the Sister Joseph Andrew stories, she sounds great. I met Mother Assumpta on the March for Life. We ended up waiting next to each other outside the Supreme Court, and I told her how I was entering the order her sister-Sister started, and she was one of the sweetest people I have ever met.

jgirl Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 I just logged onto my Paul VI class and noticed there's another phatmasser taking the Spirituality of St. Francis class online! Fr. Damien teaches the FSGM postulants in Alton, and I'm excited! Plane tickets are always exciting, too! I have some to go down to Birmingham to visit my Sisters, and just knowing exactly when you are leaving makes it easier to count down the days. I'm leaving in 10!
