HeavenlyCalling Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 (edited) Is any one going next year? If you are, where are you from, how long will it take you to get there, where will you stay, ect. ect? I am thinking about going and want all sorts of info. So anything you think might help, please post. Oh yeah, by the way, how long do you have to be a member before you get promoted from 'lurker'? I would find out for myself, but I'm lucky if I can turn my laptop on. Edited July 28, 2006 by HeavenlyCalling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FutureSoror Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm going with my future-sisters!! Graduating from lurker depends on how many posts you've made. There's a thread in Open Mike about this... let's see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
puellapaschalis Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 If I remember rightly, the you-are-no-longer-a-lurker barrier is fifty posts. Love and prayers, PP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLAM Dad Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm going to the Walk for Life. It takes me about two and a half hours to get there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavenlyCalling Posted July 28, 2006 Author Share Posted July 28, 2006 Is anyone going to the one in DC? I think that's the closest one to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veroni213 Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 I'm going to the March for Life in DC. It will take me about 45 min to get there and I'll be staying in my dorm room. Last year was my first year and it was so much fun..even though I could only find one pro-life friend to drag along with me. There were so many nuns in habits... People who are discerning should go just so they can see all the different orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And well, I wouldn't have to go very far as the novitiate house is only 20 miles south of D.C. However, I did go the past two years -- I currently live in Kentucky. The first year I went, I flew with students from my university -- we flew from Louisville to Baltimore. It was approximately 45 minutes flight time. Then we had to ride a shuttle bus (another 45 minutes or so) to get to the metro station and finally to D.C. Last year, I rode on tour buses with my diocese. I think it was a 13 hr bus ride. :bugeyes: Also, as TrueImage had said, there are numerous religious there!! It's AMAZING! That's where I first saw my order. They were singing the Salve Regina outside the Supreme Court and our group happened to be walking past them... it was as though they were calling my name.

FutureSoror Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 (edited) We'll be driving to DC in a bus (edit: BIG van) from Ann Arbor, MI... who knows how long that will take. I'm excited for it!! Edited July 29, 2006 by FutureSoror Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
magnificat Posted July 29, 2006 Share Posted July 29, 2006 I'm hoping to be able to go, God willing. With school and living halfway across the country, I'll have to see...but I'd really like to as I've never gone before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeavenlyCalling Posted July 30, 2006 Author Share Posted July 30, 2006 I have never gone to either, which is why I am posting. I heard some people talking about it and it sounds like a great thing to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Margaret Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I went to the first SanFransico one. IT was an amazing expieriance but Very frightening because even though there were thousands of us and only hundreds of protesters they were very volital screaming horrible things from all sides. I mean it is sanfransico so maybe we shouldn't be surprised. any way I hope I can go agian this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sixtina87 Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 MAGDALEN COLLEGE GOES EVERY YR...........SO IF I AM THERE SECOND SEMESTER.....I'LL BE GOING!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aalpha1989 Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 I am going to go!! I went last year for my first time....it was amazing. The best part was definitely the Mass the night before....But anyway if any of you go my group is really easy to find because we always wear bright yellow sweatshirts and we have a big banner that says "St. Thomas Aquinas High School, Kan."....Well I guess everyone has a banner....but at the Mass we are really visible because of our shirts....
