BurkeFan Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 On March 15th, I had my long application interview to find out if I would be given an application for the Eastern Province Dominicans and be allowed to apply to enter for this year. I got it! This is a huge step and basically means that the vocations director thinks that I'm ready to move forward with my application and am ready to enter the Dominicans. I'm going to be going before the vocations council to be interviewed (again) on April 27th. So, pray for me please as I go through this process! Hopefully you'll see me on here: [url="http://vocations.blog.com/"]http://vocations.blog.com/[/url] in August! : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilllabettt Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Their House of Studies is literally right down the street from where I live ... I walk by it every day on my way to work and get to see the friars in full regalia. I love the province of St. Joseph! They are the awesomest! (Okay, I'm biased, because the person who guided my RCIA class was one of their brothers.) Seriously though. They are the best!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheresaMF Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 Congratulations! That is so awesome! I love the novices and all the friars. It would be so cool to have people I actually "know" in one way or another among them. I'll keep you in my prayers--pray too for a friend of mine who is discerning a vocation to the Eastern Province. As far as Orderly siblings go, though, do you limit that to provincial boundaries? I'm aiming for within the Order at large, since the monastery I am discerning with is in Alabama (hence the Southern Province, St. Martin de Porres) but I've grown up around Eastern Province friars. LOL When Our Lord says he will give you back family 100 fold He's not kidding! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
