TheresaMF Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Ave + Maria Over 200 girls will be at the vocations retreat with the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist this weekend in Ann Arbor, Michigan. I'm taking six girls up with me. Keep us all in your prayers--for discernment, and for the weather, because we'll probably be driving in the snow. Thanks! God bless!

BurkeFan Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 You all indeed are in my prayers and the prayers of many others here in St. Louis. Two of my very dear friends are on that retreat, so I especially hope it goes well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheresaMF Posted February 27, 2006 Author Share Posted February 27, 2006 Ave + Maria Thanks for your prayers! There were over 200 girls signed up, but I don't know how many showed up. Close to that certainly. It was packed. Sr. Joseph Andrew maybe spend 5 minutes outside her little conference room--at least it felt like it--and five or six girls were always huddled outside the door awaiting their turn. The novices are having their contemplative year, apparently, so they didn't show up, but I got to hear Sr. Carly's give her vocation story and say hi to her and some other Christendom girls who drove up for the retreat. No snow--perfect travelling weather, if a little chilly! Thanks again! -TMF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
